Hello! I have been trying to get a hold of some vtkPolyData from within the update function of a paraview view plugin but I am not understanding how to do it. I have a dataset (vtkPolyData) in paraview that I add to the view by clicking the eye icon in the object list when the view is active and I now wonder how I can gain access to that data (I need the data so I can show a special representation of it in the view plugin).
As far as I (wrongly) understand it it works like this: (?) In the vtkSM*ViewProxy there is a CreateDefaultRepresentation function that creates a vtkPVCompositeRepresentation and returns it. This representation is then sent to the view in the function for the 'representationAdded' signal which can then be used during the update() function but how do you get any useful data out of this representation that has been created and given? Do I need to set up the vtkPVCompositeRepresentation in a correct way so that it has a reference to the data? Can anyone lend a hand as to how you get useful data out of the representation sent to the view? Thanks. BR/ Christoffer
