[vtkusers] [Insight-users] Problem in obtaining world position with vtkSeedWidget

[Karthik Krishnan]

The default representation for the individual handles created by
vtkSeedRepresentation is a 2D rep (vtkPointHandleRepresentation2D). It
does not have a notion of Z coordinate since its rendered on the
overlay plane. If you want 3D seeds, change the default handle
representation to an instance of  vtkPointHandleRepresentation3Dvia :
vtkSeedRepresentation::SetHandleRepresentation
