[vtk-developers] How to use color mapping for vtkPistonMapper?

[Biddiscombe, John A.]

Yes. I’ve enhanced the piston mapper and done the lookuptable on the GPU. I’m stuck in a terminally dull meeting right now, but once I escape, I’ll brush off the code and post a link.

Unfortunately I ran out of time and didn't get around to moving VTK's lookup table over when I originally implemented that class. So, the randow color map you see now is the only option when doing direct GPU to GPU rendering. Unless you hack the class yourself to make the transfer function configurable of course.

If anyone out there has an updated implementation (ahem John B.) please direct us to it and we can see about folding your improvements in.

thanks

Dear all,

I try to use vtkPistonMapper, but when I set the color with setColor(double[3]), I got nothing changed.

Thanks for any example or advice!

Regards,
Enya
