[vtkusers] VTK Glossary

[medo abdelmonem]

Hi Peter,
   
  asking about glossary is really interesting....i struggled alot to know what does this mean and what is that in my first weeks with vtk......but i found out at last there's a very helpful glossary at the end of "VTK Book"....it's made as an appendix....you can use it...and it'll be so useful i guess....
   
  bye

  Hi,

When starting off with VTK a couple of weeks ago, I remember struggling with 
basic the terminology. I took me quite a while, considering what the 
actually mean, to figure out exactly how spacing and extent were defined in 
VTK. And now I wonder, since I probably need it, what exactly is a piece, 
and what is numberofpieces. Not that I expect it to be hard to find out, as 
I can imagine what they mean, but my main question is: Why is there no VTK 
glossary, or, even better, the ability to extend the wiki with such terms? 
This would greatly benefit new users, and flatten the VTK learning curve.

Peter
