[vtkusers] Using GLJPanel with VTK

[Daniel.Zuidinga at rwth-aachen.de]

Hello VTK-Users,

i use the java wrappings of vtk and want to use a lightweight-swing component instead of the heavyweight vtkPanel which is derived from canvas (awt).

What i know:
Java 1.6 implements GLJPanel as a lightweigt OpenGL widget. So there should be a solution to use this widget for the vtk-rendering context instead of the vtkPanel? It would be very useful to use this GLJPanel because it works smooth with Swing. Is it on the roadmap to use the GLJPanel with the java wrappings of VTK?

If not, where should i start developing? 

The workaround to set my JMenus as a heavyweight component is no solution for me.


Thanks
Daniel
