[vtkusers] display bmp file

[Toon Huysmans]

Hi John,

    Maybe you could use an ImageActor to display your image instead of using a textured plane:

  Subject: [vtkusers] display bmp file


  Greetings!
  I'm VTK freshman (know nothing so far!)
  I have an MFC app and I'm trying to display a bmp file using VTK. This is the code I'm using for:

   bmpReader = vtkBMPReader::New();
   bmpReader->SetFileName("C:\\MyFile.bmp");
   atext = vtkTexture::New();
   atext->SetInput(bmpReader->GetOutput());
   plane = vtkPlaneSource::New();
   planeMapper = vtkPolyDataMapper::New();
   planeMapper->SetInput(plane->GetOutput());
   ActorImage = vtkActor::New();
   ActorImage->SetMapper(planeMapper);
   ActorImage->SetTexture(atext);
   ren->AddActor(ActorImage);

  This code display the file but it does not conserve lenght-heigth relationship (it's a square!) and centered; plus, I want to display the file starting at the left corner of the window and full size. Does anyone have any suggestions? 

  Thanks in advance.
