hi,
A simple question:
How does one turn on or off a particular VTK pipeline? Or how
does one disconnect a pipeline??
It would be useful in some circumstances to turn off a particular
pipeline, do some stuff, and then turn the pipeline segment back on.
One possible way is to connect the particular mapper/filter to another
dummy object that doesnt change and then reconnect it back. But this
method isn't elegant. I know that the MTime is used to determine if a
pipeline has been modified etc. but there are no public methods to
set the MTime. I looked around in the docs/book and couldnt really
find an answer. Any help would be appreciated.
thanks,
prabhu
