[vtkusers] vector field

[Paul A Hsieh]

Hi Philippe: The following approach may not be the most efficient but
should work. Suppose your vectors are in a dataset call ds.
1. Create a vtkFloatArray (one component) consisting of vector norm (scalar
value) at each point. Suppose this array is called "norms".
2. Put this array into the data set as scalars. In C++, this would be
ds->GetPointData()->SetScalars(norms);
3. Use vtkThresholdPoints to extract only those points having scalar value
(vector norm) between the two desired values.
Hope this helps.

Hi everybody,
I'm working on the rendering of a vector field and I've big
differences in norm between several space areas, I would
like to select and display all the vectors with a norm
between two values. Does everybody know if it's possible
with VTK (I'm using vtkglyph3D for that)
Thanks
Philippe Vincent
