[vtkusers] Depth Peeling on Intel HD 4400

Hi,

Am trying to get depth peeling to work to improve the display of a
vtkPolyData surface resulting from a delaunay triangulation.   Surfaces are
often displayed in the wrong order.  Have been unable to get depth peeling
to work and applying depth sorting still results in a display with surfaces
in the wrong order.

VTK 6.10

Intel Core i5-4210U
Intel HD Graphics 4400
OpenGL version string: 3.0
Mesa 10.3.5
Gnome Version 3.14.2
Fedora 21

Based on glxinfo (attached) and http://www.itk.org/Wiki/VTK/Depth_Peeling,
I find all the relevant extensions are available for depth peeling.

When experimenting with:

http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx/Visualization/CorrectlyRenderTranslucentGeometry

Problem 1 Summary: calling renderWindow->SetOffScreenRendering(true), seems
to break depth peeling and results in
renderer->GetLastRenderingUsedDepthPeeling() and hence 'bool
IsDepthPeelingSupported(...)' always returning false.

Problem 1 Detail:

http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx/Visualization/CorrectlyRenderTranslucentGeometry
As provided, always results in:

    DEPTH PEELING SUPPORT: NO

    CHOSEN MODE: *** DEPTH SORTING ***

(A blank window is displayed under each of the 3 call scenarios on the web
page.  This same result is achieved under both x and wayland).

But switching the parameter 'bool doitOffScreen' in the call to bool
IsDepthPeelingSupported(...) from true to false, charges the result of
IsDepthPeelingSupported(...) from false to true and results in the image
being displayed correctly.

Problem 2: Applying the above code under QVTKWidget, we still have the
issue with GetLastRenderingUsedDepthPeeling(), but applying the workaround
above and setting 'bool doitOffScreen' to false, results in new error
message during rendering:
    ERROR: In /.../VTK-6.1.0/Rendering/OpenGL/vtkOpenGLRenderer.cxx, line
1068
    vtkOpenGLRenderer (0x2c5a5e0): failed after RenderPeel 1 OpenGL errors
detected
    0 : (1282) Invalid operation

Problem 2 Detail:

According to Sebastien on this thread:
    http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.vtk.user/70699

We need to create a new a new render window and then attach it using
QVTKWidget::SetRenderWindow(...) rather than using
QVTKWidget::GetRenderWindow(...)

Even after doing this and setting 'bool doitOffScreen' to false, we still
get the error message above.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks and regards,
Michael
