[vtkusers] vtkAnnotatedCubeActor custom initial orientation

[Dean Inglis]

Jesús,

although I have never used it in the way you want,
you could get all of the actors (props) that comprise
the annotated cube actor by passing an empty vtkPropCollection to
the actos' GetActors(vtkPropCollection* ) method, and
then trying to modify each one's orientation.

Well, maybe I'll have to implement my own "orientable" annotated cube actor.
Thanks for the info though.

Jesús,

vtkAnnotatedCubeActor does not implement that
method which belongs to its parent class, vtkProp3D.
The actor is designed to be used with vtkOrientationMarkerWidget
so that its orientation is controlled by a specified renderer's camera.
The faces of the cube are always aligned with the x-y-z axes.  You
can change the text on those faces and their orientation though.
