[vtkusers] How to add an axes to the render widow?

[Ramakrishna Shyamprakash]

An Jiye,
            Consider keeping two renderers in one render window. one 
dedicated to actors and one, say in lower left corner of the window 
dedicated to axes. you can link the camera of both the renderers by 
adding observer.
