[vtkusers] ANNOUNCEMENT: Bugfix in vtkandqt

[Jan Stifter]

a new version of vtkandqt is out!
http://www.medres.ch/~jstifter/vtkandqt/

What is it?
-----------
This package combines vtk (http://www.kitware.com/vtk) and qt (GUI
Toolkit, more infos at http://www.trolltech.com/products/qt/)
together.
It consists of 2 classes:

* RenderWindow -> combines a vtkRenderer into a QGLWidget
* RenderWindowInteractor -> gives a RenderWindow interaction
possibilities.


The package is
* small and simple (RenderWindow has 60 lines of code,
RenderWindowInteractor
  has 700)
* documented with doxygen
* flexible to use (dynamic definitons, which mouse button
  to use in which interaction)
* clean code (IMHO)
* tested so far on win32, linux, SGI IRIX but should run on every
system, where vtk and qt could be installed.

You can always find the newest information at:

The Bugfix
----------
Some people reported troubles, when they interacted with the data, the
display afterwards was dark. This problem was due to dubble-buffering
of qt and of vtk.
Many thanks goes to Kuno Meyer, who found the bug and the solution.

Enjoy or Ignore it!
Jan
