Hello,
I want to write a text label and place it in a position given in the
vtkChartXY coordinates system.
My environment: VTK 6.3 + TCL.
This is what I have made so far:
I have a chart created by
vtkChartXY chart
with some points in it. Now I create a text label this way:
vtkTextMapper mapText
mapText SetInput "Some text here"
vtkActor2D txt
txt SetMapper mapText
Then, I create the renderer:
vtkRenderer renderer
and add to it the chart and the text:
renderer AddActor txt
txt SetPosition 100 100
And I see the complete scene as expected.
My problem is that I need to set the label position according to the
coordinates system of vtkChartXY, not in Viewport coordinates. Is it
possible?
I have seen that vtkXYPlotActor has some methods to get these
coordinates, but I couldn't find anything similar in vtkChartXY.
Thanks.
