In that case, when I change, e.g., the poly data input. The rendering occurs. I think I didn’t update the mapper in an appropriate way. I have looked into the source code of “vtkOpenGLPolyDataMapper” to get an clue of how to do that but I didn’t found something yet. So, can somebody give me an hint what the reason for this behavior can be. Note, it doesn’t appear every time I close and open the vtkRenderWindow but sometimes.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'><span lang=EN-US>Thanks in advance, Rocco<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-autospace:none'><span lang=EN-US> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
