Thanks for this. I finally got something working but see very strange
behavior that I'd appreciate some help with.
If I run a script with vtkpython Cone.py
the windowtoimage filter produces meaningful output. If I use vanilla
Python it doesn't and I get a blank window. Is this simply osmesa
wierdness? I also notice that if I did this:
import dl
x = dl.open('/path/to/libGL.so')
y = dl.open('/path/to/libOSMesa.so')
before I import VTK this works. Any idea why this happens? Thanks!
cheers,
prabhu
