[vtkusers] Python no vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D

[Windes, Grant]

Thanks for the reply David.

I found vtkSmartVolumeMapper to work in place of the vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D.

Oddly, I had enabled the rendering_backend to opengl2 but I reverted that back to opengl. Not sure why it still caused it to not build the textureMapper3D. Is there a way to see which rendering engine is actually being used via python?

Thanks,
Grant

Hi Grant,

The vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D is still there, it's still part of the default VTK build, and it's still usable through the python wrappers.

However, it is disabled if you set VTK_RENDERING_BACKEND:STRING=OpenGL2.

I've been converting our software from vtk 5.10 to vtk 6.2 and ran into an interesting bug where it's saying the AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D'

Anyone have any idea on why this would be? My research shows that vtkVolumeTextureMapper3D is still in the vtk library and hasn't been removed. Maybe something in my build of vtk messed it up?

Any insight to this would be great.

Thanks,
