I believe you must call Update() and/or UpdateInformation() or even 
Modified() to somehow let the pipeline know that the data has changed


hope this helps

Lateron upon user interaction i want to render a volume of extent 0,256,0,128,0,64, but only the part of this imagedata which fits into the 0,32,0,32,0,32 extent is rendered.. what am i doing wrong? Can i somehow tell the pipeline to propagate the changed extent from the start to the end?
