such objects virtual, or have to be physical by setting the parent window ID? <o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>

face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;font-family:
Arial'>The requirement behind this question is here. Suppose an application
must separate its window display and interaction from its internal code. The
application needs to set a virtual vtkOpenGLRenderWindow with interactors that
are also virtual, and binding them with a physical window whenever necessary.
Simply put, make vtkOpenGLRenderWindow and the interactor purely ‘server’
objects to return bitmaps (or video streams?). These server objects are fully
functional and independent of physical implementation. By doing this, the
application never needs to get into vtk code to change files such as
vtkMFCWindow. <o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>

can easily use Win Forms as render window.<o:p></o:p></span></font></span></p>
