Hi again,
I tried to code vtkDepthSortPolyData in my application to fix the rendering
issue (discussed before) in a custom VTK renderer I have built on top of
MITK. The issue now I'm facing is the location of geteventposition (mouse
locations) from the VTK interactor seems to be all over the place. Is there
anyway to fix this rendering problem in MITK? I don't think enabling Depth
Sorting would be a good/long term solution. Any ideas as always would be
highly appreciated.
Best wishes
