Detailed Description

Picks an entire viewport at one shot.

The Scene picker, unlike conventional pickers picks an entire viewport at one shot and caches the result, which can be retrieved later. The utility of the class arises during Actor Selection. Let's say you have a couple of polygonal objects in your scene and you wish to have a status bar that indicates the object your mouse is over. Picking repeatedly every time your mouse moves would be very slow. The scene picker automatically picks your viewport every time the camera is changed and caches the information. Additionally, it observes the vtkRenderWindowInteractor to avoid picking during interaction, so that you still maintain your interactivity. In effect, the picker does an additional pick-render of your scene every time you stop interacting with your scene. As an example, see Rendering/TestScenePicker.

Warning
  • Unlike a vtkHoverWidget, this class is not timer based. The hover widget picks a scene when the mouse is over an actor for a specified duration.
  • This class uses a vtkHardwareSelector under the hood. Hence, it will work only for actors that have opaque geometry and are rendered by a vtkPolyDataMapper.
