[vtkusers] vtkXYPlot Interaction?

[Sander Niemeijer]

Hi,

Creating an interactive vtkXYPlotActor is by no means an easy effort. 
For our VISAN application we had to make some big changes to the 
vtkXYPlotActor so it could support interaction (i.e. panning and 
zooming) but also to have it support stuff like logarithmic axes. We 
further had to adapt the vtkAxisActor2D so it would be able to draw 
ticks at arbitrary positions (which is required if you want to allow 
panning and want to keep having nice tick values at the same time).

Feel free to use our sources as a base for your own work.

You can get the source code by downloading the VISAN source package 
from our BEAT project webpage 
(http://www.science-and-technology.nl/beat). In this package you will 
find a 'packages' directory with a set of sub-packages. From this 
directory unpack the visan-subpkg.tar.gz file and there you will find 
in the subdirectory 'visanvtk' all our VTK adaptations.

Best regards,
Sander
