I have recently downloaded vtk 7.0.  I'm a newbie, and my ultimate goal is to be able to use QT with the Point Cloud Visualizer.  (Point Cloud 1.8)


I'm on a windows 64 bit 10.0 system and will be building on msvc 2015, but haven't made it to the compilation step yet.  I have installed QT 5.7 from the online installer from QT.


During step 4 of http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Building/Windows, I get the following error during configure:  Does this mean I need to installed QT 4 instead???


CMake Error at C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.6/Modules/FindQt4.cmake:1328 (message):
Found unsuitable Qt version "5.7.0" from
C:/Qt/5.7/msvc2015_64/bin/qmake.exe, this code requires Qt 4.x
Call Stack (most recent call first):
GUISupport/Qt/CMakeLists.txt:71 (find_package)

Building VTK on Windows using Visual Studio (from a zip/tar file) Note: VTK uses the standard approach for building CMake based projects on Windows.

Can someone help???

Thanks!
