Thanks to the hard work of Utkarsh and David Gobbi, we can now observe
VTK events from class member functions!
The idea is:
class MyClass
{
public:
void KeypressCallbackFunction(vtkObject* caller,
long unsigned int eventId,
void* callData )
{
std::cout << "Caught event in MyClass" << std::endl;
}
};
... else where ...
MyClass myClass;
renderWindowInteractor->AddObserver(vtkCommand::KeyPressEvent,
&myClass, &MyClass::KeypressCallbackFunction);
(This in in contrast to the old method of creating a
vtkCallbackCommand object and passing it a static class function,
yuck!)
A full demonstration can be found here:

Hopefully this new addition will improve the organization of everyones
code. It certainly has with mine!
Thanks,
David
