I know what you mean- in fact the VTK wiki was set up after one of the
more heated threads on this list, started off by "how was I supposed to
know that!..."
The wiki was supposed to be a more detailed how-to style documentation
by and for the users. It hasn't really gone that way unfortunately.
I think it would be unrealistic to expect every nuance of VTK to be
documented- you get to the stage when you have to read the source code
to learn what is going on under the hood. Luckily VTK is open source and
you can.
I agree though- there is plenty of rope to hang yourself. I suppose it
comes down to the robustness/flexibility play-off.
There you go,
Goodwin
