[vtkusers] vtkLODProp3D problem

[Maarten Beek]

The progress I have made so far is that I think that the vtkLODProp3D class only considers the render time in its decision making. I don't think that rendering is the bottle neck in my application.
So now my question is: how can I determine the time it takes to update the entire pipeline. So from the render call in the actor that propagates all these update requests down the pipeline until the eventual update of the input of this actor (i.e until its mapper is up-to-date)?
Thanks - Maarten

 Hi all,
I am trying to use the vtkLODProp3D class, but I cannot seem to get it to work.
Is the appropriate level only selected when I rotate the camera around the object or interact with the object itself?
I am interacting one actor which triggers an update in the pipeline of another actor. This is slow so I want to have different resolution levels in the pipeline that gets updated. The coarsest resolution would just be a bounding box, which would not update the pipeline at all.
Thanks Maarten
