[vtkusers] RenderWindowInteractor when ActiViz/COM control placed in MDI child window using VB 2003?

[SKoch at trinityconsultants.com]

Hello VTK community,

We are trying to evaluate the ActiViz/COM control for our VB 2003 
applications.  All is going well except we are stuck trying to change the 
'RenderWindowInteractor' when we place the control in a MDI child window 
(see image). 



The default interactor (i.e. InteractorStyleJoystickCamera) is working but 
we can not change the interactor style or setup event observers.  The 
following code works if the control is placed in the main window container 
but has no effect when placed in a child window.....

        renWin = CType(AxvtkRenderWindowControl1.GetRenderWindow, 
vtkRenderWindow)
        renCol = renWin.GetRenderers
        renCol.InitTraversal()
        ren1 = renCol.GetNextItem
        ren1.SetBackground(0, 0, 0)
        rwi = renWin.GetInteractor
        rwiStyleTBC = New vtkInteractorStyleTrackballCamera
        rwi.SetInteractorStyle(rwiStyleTBC)
