[vtkusers] 3D-position of vtkImageReslice

[Henning Meyer]

Hello,

another thing regarding this is bugging me:
When setting a large zoom factor by vtkImageReslice::SetResliceAxes -
the OutputExtent is not adjusted correctly -  so a way to large image
is displayed (basically the whole image - with a huge size). What
would be the proper way to adjust the OutputExtent? Could this be seen
as a bug in vtkImageResclice?
