[vtkusers] Wrong documentation or wrong code for vtkAxisActor2D?

[Jafari, Kourosh]

Thanks Bill for your prompt response. Here is the error message:


1>------ Build started: Project: Test6, Configuration: Release Win32 ------
1>Compiling...
1>Test6.cxx
1>.\Test6.cxx(1237) : error C2039: 'SetRulerDistance' : is not a member of 'vtkAxisActor2D'
1>        C:\Users\Kourosh\Research\Softwares\Toolkit\VTK\vtk-5.6.0\Rendering\vtkAxisActor2D.h(66) : see declaration of 'vtkAxisActor2D'

Here is the part of the code that uses vtkAxisActor2D. The last line causes error:

 vtkAxisActor2D *AxialAxisRight = vtkAxisActor2D::New();
 AxialAxisRight->SetPoint1(1,1);
 AxialAxisRight->SetPoint2(1,0);
 AxialAxisRight->SetNumberOfMinorTicks(10);
 AxialAxisRight->GetProperty()->SetColor(0,0,1);
 AxialAxisRight->LabelVisibilityOff();
 AxialAxisRight->PickableOff();
 AxialAxisRight->AxisVisibilityOff();
 AxialAxisRight->SetRulerDistance(1);


Thanks!
Kourosh

I see it in the current source code. Please show your code snippet
that illustrates the compiler error.

In the compilation stage, the method SetRulerDistance is not recognized. I am using vtk-5.6.0 but I think vtk-5.6.1 should have the same problem. Is this method deleted in the newer versions?
