Hi all,
This is a simple question: I haven't been able to find any info on
whether arrays (images, ...) are stored in row major (C) or column
major (Fortran) order in VTK.
I assumed they are in C order, but then I saw this blog post:
https://blog.kitware.com/developing-hdf5-readers-using-vtkpythonalgorithm/
In a comment the author says
# Note that we flip the dimensions here because
# VTK's order is Fortran whereas h5py writes in
# C order. We don't want to do deep copies so we write
# with dimensions flipped and pretend the array is
# C order.
which made me a little unsure. What is the array order of the data
classes in VTK, and is it the same for all classes?
Thanks,
Elvis
