[vtkusers] Can't move vtkAxesActor with vtkInteractorStyleTrackballActor

[Dean Inglis]

David,

I havent tried this, but you can get all the actors that comprise
the vtkAxesActor in a vtkPropCollection and then maybe(?) transform
them one by one or as a whole.  You can also set a UserTransform
through the vtkProp3D API.

Karthik,

Yes, that's what I was trying to do - change the transform of the axes
actor as I interact with it. I was trying to use it to represent
"positioning and aiming" a "camera" in my scene.

Is there a better tool to do this? Or is there a way to "unlock" the
axes actor so it will move with the trackballActor interactor?

Thanks,

David
