[vtkusers] OpenGL with VTK

[Rocco Gasteiger]

Hello Rakesh,

 

Yes you can! ;-) You can use OpenGL rendering calls in the "Render"-function
of a derived Mapper class. For example, you can derive your own
MyPolyDataMapper from  vtkOpenGLPolyDataMapper class (or vtkPolyDataMapper)
to render polydata in a given vtk render window. In the "Render"-function
you place your own OpenGL-Code, e.g., display lists, VBO calls, shader
programs. Be sure to initialize all things properly before you call the
rendering. In doing so, you can use all OpenGL possibilities because you are
responsible for rendering the input dataset...not VTK anymore.

 

Cheers, Rocco

Thanks Hellice

 

In that example, VTK objects are rendered in OpenGL context. What I am
looking is to use OpenGL code in VTK and render in vtk's rendering window.
Is that possible..??

 

Thanks

 

Regards

Rakesh Patil
