[vtkusers] QVTKWidget and Layers

[Clinton Stimpson]

Does adding Qt widgets as children of the QVTKWidget do what you want?

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
  QApplication app(argc, argv);

  QVTKWidget widget;
  vtkNew<vtkRenderer> renderer;
  renderer->SetBackground(1., 1., 0.);
  renderer->SetBackground2(0., 1., 1.);
  renderer->SetGradientBackground(true);
  widget.GetRenderWindow()->AddRenderer(renderer.GetPointer());

  QVBoxLayout* l = new QVBoxLayout(&widget);
  QComboBox* box = new QComboBox(&widget);
  box->addItem("item 1");
  box->addItem("item 2");
  l->addWidget(box);
  l->addStretch();

  widget.show();
  return app.exec();
}

If not, perhaps you can give an example that isn't working.

Is there a way to do it properly resorting to a mix of vtk and qt? Is there some "canonical" approach I'm missing?
