How can i Copy an vtkActor ( vtkMapper ) ?

[Luebeck, Harald]

How can create an exact copy of an vtkActor. I need an copy not an refrence
because i want to modify some Properties without modifing the original
Actor.

At the moment i use the folloing code :

// Copy Mapper through DataSet
pDataSet->CopyStructure( pShapeActor->GetMapper()->GetInput() );
// Set new mapper 
pMapper->SetInput( pDataSet );
pActor->SetMapper( pMapper );

How can i copy the rest of the data. i.e TCoords, Scalars ... ?

Thanks for any help.
