[vtkusers] VTK in a c++ GUI

[Marek.Wasilewski at dnv.com]

Hi Lachlan
If you are happy using a render window wrapped up as an ActiveX control
for Windows then this might be of interest to you:

http://www.data-visualization-software.com/visualization/vtkactivex.aspx

Even if you don't go down the route of implementing your user interface
using CFormView and the ActiveX control, you can use the provided source
code to get pointers on how to anchor the render window to a parent
window using an MFC/Windows approach.

Hope this helps.

Best regards

Marek

Good Morning all,

I have had a look through the forum but to no avail so heres my problem,

i want to be able to embed a vtkrenderwindow inside a normal c++ GUI.
basically i want to be able to have buttons, text boxes in the gui etc..
as well as a nice visualisation window on the same form.

I am currently developing on mac os x but if people have done this with 
windows
or linux id love some pointers.

thanks

Lachlan Blackhall
