[vtkusers] Camera is not updated

[Cory Quammen]

Jens,

Did you try calling your render window's Render() member function after
changing the camera properties? Rendering updates are not performed
automatically when you change just camera properties. This is actually good
because it prevents too many renderings when you update more than one
camera property.

HTH,
Cory
