[vtk-developers] vtkWeightedTransformFilter added to contrib

[Michael Halle]

I just added a new filter called "vtkWeightedTransformFilter" into the
CVS repository, under contrib.

A weighted transform filter transforms each point in its input using
several transforms, and computes the final output point by scaling
these transformed points by a per-point tuple of weights and summing
the result.

This filter allows cheap deformation of meshes and other structures,
"skinning" and non-rigid connection of moving objects, and the
creation of complex shapes using interpolation (wings, potato chips,
and guitar picks from my one night's experimenting :).

Please try out the "banana.tcl" demo.
