[vtkusers] [volume drilling]

[John Fourkiotis]

Hello to everyone,
i downloaded the VTK 4.2, installed it and run a few examples, but the lib  
looks huge :). Is volume drilling possible with VTK ? i mean, lets say  
that we have a cube (represented by voxels), what we want is when we click  
on the volume, a certain amount of material (lets say half a sphere of  
radius R, chosen by the user) to be drilled,  or to be added, or to smooth  
some part of it. Is this possible ? On what classes should i focus on ?  
Would the result be fast enough for volumes of 256X256X256 Voxels ? I  
would also like to ask you, if it is possible to read a number of TIFF  
images and make a volume out of them with ready-made classes.

Thanx in advance
