Subject: QVTK issue with vtkImageViewer2
To: vtkusers at vtk.org


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 3 other widgets to browse,
load and unload the data. I want to be able to display the data in
QVTKwidget as soon as I hit the load button. I also want to be able to
unload the data and clear the QVTKwidget as soon as I hit the unload button
so that I can load a new dataset afterwards.

I can read and display the data fine only the first time. I can also unload
the data, but after unload when I try to load new data it doesn't show up in
my QVTKwidget. Can anyone please tell me what am I missing or doing wrong
here and how to correct it?

My development environment is:
Windows XP Pro x64
Visual Studio 2005
VTK 5.4.2
Qt 4.5.0

Thanks,
Ashish

Here's the code that I use:
