One thing that I am not sure about, is if this problem is due to using the same actor in multiple renderers. The application has up to 4 renderers in the main window that are also displaying some of the actors show in the popup. I've read somewhere that reusing actors like this is bad, but if I understand correctly, I'd otherwise have to duplicate the entire polydata->mapper->actor pipeline for each actor I want to show multiple times, and I'd like to avoid this...</div><div><br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">We're using mfc on win7, AMD Radeon HD 7770, with vtk 4.21 (yes I know
