Hello guys,

I'm developing my software and I'm a kinda of OK to keep a vector of actors for managing the properties of visibility, color and renderings.
But In case I need to apply a filter to a visualized dataset and I have just the list of actors, is there any way to:


1) determine the type of dataset which that actor is visualising,
2) retrieving that dataset.

Many Thanks.
Giancarlo
 		 	   		  

try:

actor->GetMapper()->GetInput()
This will give you the data set. You can then find the type with

result->GetClassName()Thanks,
