[vtkusers] Parameters for SetHeight and SetRadius in vtkCylinderSource

[Prashanth Udupa]

Hi,

You need to use an image reader to read and input the image to vtkTexture,
which will then be applied on to an actor.

attached images image1.jpg and image2.jpg files show the pipeline and its
output.

Hope this helps.
