[vtkusers] cutter for vtkGlyph3D

[alex Dowson]

Hi

You can try like this

plane = vtk.vtkPlane()
plane.SetOrigin(0,0,0)
plane.SetNormal(0.17, 0, 0.9579)
planeCut = vtk.vtkCutter()
planeCut.SetInput(pdb.GetOutput())
planeCut.SetCutFunction(plane)

Sorry, I didn't say it clearly.
I read the pdb by
pdb = vtk.vtkPDBReader()
pdb.SetFileName(sys.argv[1])

And I want to cut the pdb by the plain and its cutter

plane = vtk.vtkPlane()
plane.SetOrigin(??????????????????????what should I put in here)
plane.SetNormal(0.17, 0, 0.9579)
planeCut = vtk.vtkCutter()
planeCut.SetInput(????????????????????what should I put in here)
planeCut.SetCutFunction(plane)


Thank you!

  Dear ALL,
  I have a pdb file and I want to use the pdbreader to read the pdb file. And use use vtkGlyph3D for each atom (each points ) of the pdb. I want to use a plain to cut this pdb and show the cutting plain of the pdb. How do I combine vtkCutter and vtkGlyph3D to achieve the aim? Thank you.
