[vtkusers] Changing vtkPolyData

["Siebert, Frank-André"]

Dear VTK-list members,


I have trouble with changing a vtkPolyData set. Of course I read the
list-archives and this topic was discussed before but I didn't found a 
convenient solution.

In my Application (vtk4.0 with Tcl/Tk on Win2000) I define up to 100
user given lines in a 2D image (vtkTkImageViewerWidget) by mouseclick 
as vtkPolyData. This works fine. But now I am looking for a possibility to 
change the coordinates of one single point in the vtkPolyData set.

When I look at vtkTransformPolyDataFilter it seems to me that one can
use this filter to transform the whole dataset but not a single point.




The mentioned lines in my program are defined as followed:



...
vtkPoints pts1

vtkCellArray line1

vtkPolyData myLines
    myLines SetPoints pts1
    myLines SetLines line1



# define a new line:  lineNum is the number of the line (0..99)


pts1 InsertPoint [expr 2*$lineNum] $x1 $y1 0
pts1 InsertPoint [expr 2*$lineNum +1] $x2 $y2 0
line1 InsertNextCell 2
line1 InsertCellPoint [expr 2*$lineNum]
line1 InsertCellPoint [expr 2*$lineNum+1]

viewer Render
...




It would be very helpful if somebody could give a hint how to alter the
vtkPolyData structure or could name a link to an example. 

Maybe the solution is so easy I could not see it !?



Thank you

Frank-André
