 Hi Darshan,That i have done.. But how do i set the updated data to the actor..??I mean, for example, I get the Unstructured grid from the actor as follows:vtkUnstructuredGrid *grid = vtkUnstructuredGrid::SafeCast( actor>GetMapper()>GetInput() );vtkPoints *pts = grid>GetPoints();// Assign new values to ptsNext how do I connect this pts to actor "actor" so that the actor clears the old display and renders new display..??I mean after i set pts to grid, how do i set this grid to actor..? I tried doing this...actor>GetMapper()>GetInput()>ShallowCopy(grid);actor>Modified();But i found no change.. It is showing same old display.. Any suggestions..??ThanksRegardsRakesh Patil Original message From:Darshan Pai< darshanpai at gmail.com >Date: 04 Apr 10 01:22:24Subject:Re: [vtkusers] How to change data through ActorTo: Rakesh Patil You can always get your data back from the actor using Actor>GetMapper()>GetInput(). Then you can change your data .On Sat, Apr 3, 2010 at 5:30 AM, Rakesh Patil
