hi<br>first of all thanks for ur email :)<br>Here is in brief what I'm trying to do and on the basis of that kindly guide me whether I'm right or wrong.<br><br>1. By using VTK , I have design a prototype i.e Pre operative surgical tool.<br>2. Now, I need to do some advancement (for example Haptics ) and for Volume Rendering I will need to move on GPU programming etc.<br>3. OpenGL is very strong and many libraries support OpenGl as u know. <br>4. However, I m confuse herer and want help. Can I use my OPENGL stuff (i.e in C) and call from VTK(C++). or Can i use directly OPENGL from VTK. <br><br>As, i have gone through VTK and Yes it does use OPENGL. A<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">s u said "</span></span><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">VTK deals with OpenGL for you". <br><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br>So, In Similar manner how can i use my OpenGl (u can say generic code in VTK)/ how can i use direct opengl code with my VTK code.<br><br>I will so glad if u kindly clear my concept. <br></span></span><br><div>
