I am able to set the color of the plane without an issue by using:

[code]
this->Actor->SetMapper(this->Mapper);
this->Property->SetColor(.8, .4, .2);
this->Actor->SetProperty(this->Property);
rview->GetRenderer()->AddActor(this->Actor);
rview->GetRenderer()->SetBackground(.1, .2, .3);
[/code]

So somehow, the texture is not loading properly. Does anyone know what is wrong here?

Thanks,
Brian

I am trying to make a simple plugin to automatically apply a texture to a plane source. I am looking at this code for reference: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx/Visualization/TextureMapPlane

So far I have figured out that I need to use a custom representation, but I have not figure out where to place the code. By using vtkMySpecialRepresentation as a base, I added a RequestData() which does the following:

[code]
if(inputVector[0]->GetNumberOfInformationObjects()==1)
   {
vtkDataObject* inputData = vtkDataObject::GetData(inputVector[0], 0);
       vtkSmartPointer<vtkPlaneSource> ps =
           vtkPlaneSource::SafeDownCast(inputData);
       if(ps != NULL)
       {
           ps->SetCenter(0.0, 0.0, 0.0);
           ps->SetNormal(0.0, 0.0, 1.0);

           vtkSmartPointer<vtkTextureMapToPlane> tp =
               vtkSmartPointer<vtkTextureMapToPlane>::New();
           tp->SetInput(ps->GetOutput());

           this->Mapper->SetInputConnection(tp->GetOutputPort());
       }
   }
   return this->Superclass::RequestData(info, inputVector, outVector);
[/code]

I then added AddToView() with the following:

[code] vtkPVRenderView* rview = vtkPVRenderView::SafeDownCast(view);
 if (rview)
 {
   imgReader->SetFileName("/share/panneton/Desktop/blue.png");
   vtkSmartPointer<vtkTexture> texture =
       vtkSmartPointer<vtkTexture>::New();
   texture->SetInput(imgReader->GetOutput());

   this->Actor->SetMapper(this->Mapper);
   this->Actor->SetTexture(texture);
   rview->GetRenderer()->AddActor(this->Actor);
   rview->GetRenderer()->SetBackground(.1, .2, .3);
 }
 return this->Superclass::AddToView(view);
[/code]

This however does not seem to work. Am I going about this wrong?

Thanks,
