[vtkusers] Rotation Problems..

I've setup a global system containing two actors. The question I have is 
regarding the .RotateWXYZ method which I've been using to translate the 
actors(vtkProp3D) individually. Ideally I wish to rotate around the global 
axis. However by questioning the Actor position(.GetPosition()) before and 
after rotation it appears that the axis itself is being rotated as before and 
after global positions are identical. Does vtk deal with global rotations 
whereby the actor moves???
