[vtkusers] How to set color of a clipped mesh?

[pnt1614]

I am using vtkSelectPolyData to clip a region using a contour. But the
clipped region is rendered in unexpected color. Is there anyway to get the
original mesh's color after clipping?

// A contour generated using points
vtkSmartPointer<vtkContourRepresentation> rep =
vtkContourRepresentation::SafeDownCast(g_contourWidget->GetRepresentation());

		vtkSmartPointer<vtkPoints> selectionPoints =
rep->GetContourRepresentationAsPolyData()->GetPoints();

		vtkSmartPointer<vtkSelectPolyData> loop =
vtkSmartPointer<vtkSelectPolyData>::New();
		loop->SetInputData(mesh->GetOutput());
		loop->SetLoop(selectionPoints);		
		loop->GenerateSelectionScalarsOn();
		loop->SetSelectionModeToLargestRegion();
		
		vtkSmartPointer<vtkClipPolyData> clip =
vtkSmartPointer<vtkClipPolyData>::New();
		clip->SetInputConnection(loop->GetOutputPort());

		vtkSmartPointer<vtkPolyDataMapper> clipMapper =
vtkSmartPointer<vtkPolyDataMapper>::New();
		clipMapper->SetInputConnection(clip->GetOutputPort());

		vtkSmartPointer<vtkLODActor> clipActor =
vtkSmartPointer<vtkLODActor>::New();
		clipActor->SetMapper(clipMapper);
		

		vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderer> renderer =
vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderer>::New();

		
		vtkSmartPointer<vtkRenderWindowInteractor> interactor =
m_vtkWindow->GetInteractor();
		
		// Add the actors to the renderer, set the background and size
		renderer->AddActor(clipActor);
		renderer->SetBackground(0.5, 0.5, 0.5);

		m_vtkWindow->RemoveRenderer(contour_renderer);
		m_vtkWindow->AddRenderer(renderer);

		m_vtkWindow->Render();
		interactor->Start();
