[vtkusers] Build my own polydata ?

[Adeline Joliet]

Hello,

I used FrustumSource to build the frustum polydata.

vtkFrustumSource * fs = vtkFrustumSource::New();

vtkPlanes * frustumPlanes = areaPicker->GetFrustum();

fs->SetPlanes(frustumPlanes);

frustumedPolyData = fs->GetOutput();

// display
vtkPolyDataMapper *map2 = vtkPolyDataMapper::New();
map2->SetInput(frustumedPolyData);
  
vtkActor* act2 = vtkActor::New();
act2->SetMapper(map2);

It works, the frustum is displayed but there is kind of wierd problem. when I move the camera sometimes all my others
3D objects (and the frustum) just disappear ... ! 

Regards,
Adeline
