Hi all,
I am trying to texture map a BMP image on a structure grid.My structure grid
was created using vtkPolydata class with explicitly stating the points and
connectivity.I understand the texture map range is from 0-1 in parametric
coordinates.When i tried to texture map the image by creating
texture coordinates,I got the image to be mapped in every cell of my
structured grid.(100 images in 100 unit cells of my structured grid).How do
i increase the range of my texture coordinates so that i get one single
image mapped.I am attaching the fragment of the code i used .
Thanks in advance,
Ganesh
// Code fragment for texture mapping
vtkTexture *mytext=vtkTexture::New();
vtkTCoords *texcoor=vtkTCoords::New();
vtkPolyData *mesh = vtkPolyData::New();
//structured grid generation
for (i=0; i<121; i++) points->InsertPoint(i,x[i]);
for (i=0; i<100; i++) polys->InsertNextCell(4,pts[i]);
//for texture coordinates
for(i=0;i<121;i++) texcoor->InsertTCoord(i,x[i]);
mesh->SetPoints(points);
points->Delete();
mesh->SetPolys(polys);
polys->Delete();
//Assigning the texture coordinates
mesh->GetPointData()->SetTCoords(texcoor);
mytext->SetInput(myreader->GetOutput());
//end of fragment
