[vtkusers] How do I limit the drawing volume or clip the view ?

[David.Pont at ForestResearch.co.nz]

Hi Paul,
   if you work in C++ I can send you a vtk class that will probably do
this. It would work best if you have the upper and lower surfaces as
separate polydata, and all the wells as one polydata (could use
vtkAppendPolyData). Might be a bit slow because there are lots of polygons,
but should do it...

Hi

I'm visualising some geophysical data in an oil field simulation. I have
the top and bottom surfaces of the oil reservoirs and the oil well data.
The oil well data runs from ground level but I sometimes just want to
display the oil wells for a few feet above and below the oil reservoir I'm
looking at. How would I clip (if thats the right word) the view to achieve
this ?

Thanks Paul
