[vtkusers] location of movable component

[Jorge Perez]

Hi, you can use vtkHandleWidget

http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkHandleWidget.html#details

below is a simple example in Tcl, the position is printed in standard
output.

package require vtk
package require vtkinteraction

# this proc will be invoked during widget interaction
proc OnInteraction { r } {
  set pos [$r GetWorldPosition]
  puts "pos = $pos"
}

vtkTkRenderWidget .tkrw
::vtk::bind_tk_render_widget .tkrw

set renWin [.tkrw GetRenderWindow]

vtkRenderer ren
ren SetBackground 0.0 0.4 0.5

$renWin AddRenderer ren

# create the widget representation
vtkFixedSizeHandleRepresentation3D rep
rep SetHandleSizeInPixels 10
[rep GetProperty] SetColor 1 0 0
rep SetWorldPosition 0 0 0

# create the widget
vtkHandleWidget widget
widget SetInteractor [$renWin GetInteractor]
widget SetDefaultRenderer ren
widget SetRepresentation rep
# add the interaction observer
widget AddObserver InteractionEvent {OnInteraction rep}
after idle {widget On}

pack .tkrw -fill both -expand yes
