Thanks Jothy. I'll take a look. It seems very close to the ImageSlicing example Eric called out.

This is an ugly python code, but may be usefull

The output of the reslice filter should just be an image (i.e. a vtkImageData which is only 1-deep, so it's flat like an image instead of what you'd think of as a volume).

If you haven't, maybe you can at least play with those methods and see if they make any difference.

I'm determining the orientation based on a fiducial.
