[vtkusers] small question ... how to pass data from vtkPNGreader to a vtkImageData Object ?

[Jérôme]

Hi,

David,
I think that ParaView opens a 2D file in a 2D render by default. Just check
the "visibility" icon (eye) in the pipeline when your 3D render window is
active. It should work. if not, ask the ParaView mailing list ;)

Abdalrahman,
I really don't understand your question : vtkPNGReader is an vtkAlgorithm
with no input and a vtkImageData output. You can then plug your reader
output to any filter that takes vtkImageData as input ! What do you mean
exactly by "how to pass data" ? May your formulation be more precise ?

Regards,
Jérôme
