[vtkusers] Image Properties: Scalar Components

[Christian Werner]

I am so sorry. One and a half day of headache just because I did not 
know how to set up RGB Image Types in ITK. Everything works fine now and 
I have my superb vtktSimpleImageToImageITKFilter up and running :)

In case somebody wants to know:

    typedef itk::RGBPixel< char >        PixelType;
    typedef itk::Image<PixelType, DIM>    InputType;

that does the trick and any itkVTKImageImporter instantiated that way is 
happy with RGB images from VTK!


Best regards,
Christian
