Oh thank's Eugen ! It is so obvious... but I'm not still awaked today ! lol
So it works good and I don't understand why this blending mode is not implemented in VTK.

Bye !

Hi,

you have to asure that your new class is used!
If you create your mapper like:

vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D* mapper = vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D::New()

then "mapper" will be of the derived type "vtkOpenGLVolumeTextureMapper3D"  
because of the vtkVolumeRenderingFactory, which chooses a suitable type  
according to your system. In order to get an object of your derived type  
you would have to modify vtkVolumeRenderingFactory to know your derived  
type and create an object with its type instead...

The easier way is to use your mapper directly like:

vtkMyDerivedOpenGLTextureMapper3D* mapper =  
vtkMyDerivedOpenGLTextureMapper3D::New()


At least this works for me...

A code chunk how you instantiate your mapper would help...

Bye,
Eugen
