VTK

The post shows a way to scale image which is displayed by vtkActor2D object. We used vtkImageResize that performs sinc interpolation on images to change their sizes. #include <vtkCamera.h> #include <vtkImageActor.h> #include <vtkImageCanvasSource2D.h> #include <vtkImageData.h> #include <vtkImageMapper3D.h> #include <vtkImageReader2.h> #include <vtkImageReader2Factory.h> #include <vtkImageResize.h> #include <vtkImageSincInterpolator.h> #include <vtkInteractorStyleImage.h> #include <vtkNamedColors.h> #include Read more…

Here are four points in 3D space, we will take them and generate another four points to draw a cube. Construct triangles to form cells for the mesh, the normal of every cell is toward inside. Here are all details about the generation. Update on 2023.10.17: The cells’ normals generated Read more…

The post introduces how to create an environment for learning VTK by Python. The basic conditions on my computer: VTK-8.1.1 macOS Mojave 10.14 Python 2.7.10 Write a bash script and run it. cmake ./ -G “Unix Makefiles” \ -DVTK_USE_QVTK:BOOL=ON \ -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local \ -DVTK_USE_GUISUPPORT:BOOL=ON \ -DVTK_QT_VERSION=5 \ -DModule_vtkGUISupportQt:BOOL=ON \ -DModule_vtkGUISupportQtOpenGL:BOOL=ON \ Read more…

The post shows a way to create 2D grid on screen by VTK. Show it by vtkActor2D because we regard it as a 2D object. Its default coordinate system is viewport which is rendering. So we will have to know the window’s size. Let’s make the process easier. Change the Read more…
