[vtkusers] QVTK and vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline (0487BC08) and Win32OpenGLWindow errors

Sun Mar 15 16:13:14 EDT 2009

Hi,

I am trying to display each slice from a series of CT scans in a QVTKwidget.
The QVTKWidget itself is in a QMainWindow with 2 other widgets to browse and
load the data and a slider to view each slice. I want to be able to display
the data in QVTKwidget as soon as I hit the load button and use a slider to
display every slice from the series. I am facing two problems with my
application.

(1) when I run the application I get a bunch of errors that open in a new
vtkOutputWindow. How do I eliminate these? The errors that I get are as
follows:
-----
ERROR: In ..\..\vtk-5.2.1\Filtering\vtkDemandDrivenPipeline.cxx, line 725
vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline (0487BC08): Input port 0 of algorithm
vtkImageMapToWindowLevelColors(0487AA68) has 0 connections but is not
optional.

(2)My application windows also opens up and I can load the data fine. But
when I use the slider, it opens up a new Win32OpenGLWindow and displays each
slice in this window instead of my QVTKWidget window.

Can anyone please guide me on solving these 2 errors? I will really
appreciate all assistance with this.

Thanks,
Ashish
