[vtkusers] Question: how to send vtk output/image into WxWindow cell of interface?

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Quan,

	It's usually a good idea to share your problem with the community, just 
CC the vtkusers ML.

	If I recommended wxWindows 2.4.2 this is just because this is the only 
release (after 2.2.9) that behaves well with VTK. You can pick any 
version you want, but I warned you.

	As for the linux version, I am not sure I understand your question. Are 
you talking about the kernel version ? Or are you speaking about linux 
distribution ? In both case anything will work as soon as you have the 
right wxWindows version. So either use rpm or apt to check the version 
number.

	Did you buy the VTK User Guide ? If so you'll find everything you need 
on the CD. Just use cmake to generate the Makefiles and then compile VTK 
using the usual 'make' command.


	BTW, if you don't feel confortable with unix/linux you can just do 
everything on Microsoft Windows/MacOSX (wxWindows as well as VTK are 
cross plateform).
