[vtkusers] How to set premitives' edge color?

[L.J. van Ruijven (ACTA)]

Hi Ben,

I also wrote a program in tcl/tk to make the edges visible.The file 
Condyle_Model.VTK contains an object of type vtkPolyData.

Here is the complete code:
# intro copied from vtkInt.tcl
catch {load vtktcl}
source c:/progs/vtk31/examplesTcl/vtkInt.tcl
vtkRenderer ren1
    ren1 SetBackground 1 1 1
vtkRenderWindow renWin
    renWin AddRenderer ren1
vtkRenderWindowInteractor iren
    iren SetRenderWindow renWin

# read the surface data
vtkDataSetReader reader
    reader SetFileName "Condyle_Model.VTK"

vtkDataSetMapper moldMapper
    moldMapper SetInput [reader GetOutput]
    moldMapper SetScalarVisibility 0
vtkActor moldActor
    moldActor SetMapper moldMapper
    [moldActor GetProperty] SetOpacity 1
    ren1 AddActor moldActor

vtkDataSetMapper moldMapper1
    moldMapper1 SetInput [reader GetOutput]
    moldMapper1 SetScalarVisibility 0
vtkActor moldActor1
    moldActor1 SetMapper moldMapper1
    set prop [moldActor1 GetProperty]
    $prop SetRepresentationToWireframe
    $prop SetColor 0 0 0
    $prop SetLineWidth 2
    moldActor1 SetProperty $prop
    ren1 AddActor moldActor1

iren Render

success Leo.
