vtk3DWidget Class Reference
#include <vtk3DWidget.h>
Detailed Description
an abstract superclass for 3D widgetsvtk3DWidget is an abstract superclass for 3D interactor observers. These 3D widgets represent themselves in the scene, and have special callbacks associated with them that allows interactive manipulation of the widget. Inparticular, the difference between a vtk3DWidget and its abstract superclass vtkInteractorObserver is that vtk3DWidgets are "placed" in 3D space. vtkInteractorObservers have no notion of where they are placed, and may not exist in 3D space at all. 3D widgets also provide auxiliary functions like producing a transformation, creating polydata (for seeding streamlines, probes, etc.) or creating implicit functions. See the concrete subclasses for particulars.
Typically the widget is used by specifying a vtkProp3D or VTK dataset as input, and then invoking the "On" method to activate it. (You can also specify a bounding box to help position the widget.) Prior to invoking the On() method, the user may also wish to use the PlaceWidget() to initially position it. The 'i' (for "interactor") keypresses also can be used to turn the widgets on and off (methods exist to change the key value and enable keypress activiation).
To support interactive manipulation of objects, this class (and subclasses) invoke the events StartInteractionEvent, InteractionEvent, and EndInteractionEvent. These events are invoked when the vtk3DWidget enters a state where rapid response is desired: mouse motion, etc. The events can be used, for example, to set the desired update frame rate (StartInteractionEvent), operate on the vtkProp3D or other object (InteractionEvent), and set the desired frame rate back to normal values (EndInteractionEvent).
Note that the Priority attribute inherited from vtkInteractorObserver has a new default value which is now 0.5 so that all 3D widgets have a higher priority than the usual interactor styles.

| virtual void vtk3DWidget::PlaceWidget | ( | double | bounds[6] | ) | [pure virtual] |
This method is used to initially place the widget. The placement of the widget depends on whether a Prop3D or input dataset is provided. If one of these two is provided, they will be used to obtain a bounding box, around which the widget is placed. Otherwise, you can manually specify a bounds with the PlaceWidget(bounds) method. Note: PlaceWidget(bounds) is required by all subclasses; the other methods are provided as convenience methods.
