[vtkusers] Mouse scroll event and overloading interactor style methods

[Kerry Loux]

Yes, I am calling RenderWindowInteractor->SetInteractorStyle(myStyle).
Here's the snippet:

InteractorStyle = (INTERACTOR_STYLE *)INTERACTOR_STYLE::New();// actual
return type is vtkInteractorStyleTrackballCamera
SetInteractorStyle(InteractorStyle);

called within the constructor of my RenderWindowInteractor (it's actually
derived from wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor).

I did solve the scroll wheel problem by adding a SetFocus() to the top of
the OnButtonUp function in the wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor.

Thanks,

Kerry
