Lydia,

Sorry.  I am new to vtk and haven't use the image functionality (yet).  All
I
can suggest is to keep trying with your questions and the code.  VTK is
undoubtedly powerful, but also complex.  It doesn't help that there isn't
much
documentation.  I bought both books published by the authors of the software
and consider them to be borderline useless for people who want to use the
software.  The books don't contain enough complete examples that show how
the
objects work together.  I even thought about writing a book of my own to
fill
the void.  I have a lot to learn about VTK before I could do something like
that, and am not sure if I have the time, interest, etc. for such an
undertaking.

Ted
