[vtk-developers] Timer in vtkOpenVRRenderWindowInteractor

[Florence8627]

I am having issues in creating a repeating timer with
vtkOpenVRRenderWindowInteractor..
I definied a vtkTimerCallback class just like how timer is used in normal
vtkRenderWindowInteractor Then, // assuming iren is the interactor pointer
  vtkNew<vtkOpenVRRenderWindowInteractor> iren;
  iren->Initialize();
// Sign up to receive TimerEvent
  vtkSmartPointer<vtkTimerCallback2> cb =
vtkSmartPointer<vtkTimerCallback2>::New();
  iren->AddObserver(vtkCommand::TimerEvent, cb);
  iren->CreateRepeatingTimer(1000);
  iren->Start();

It seems after start() is called the timer is blocked. Does anyone have any
clue how to run a timer in vtkOpenVR module ? Or anyway of doing animation
in vtkOpenVR module?

Thanks !
