vtkImageActor

Section: Visualization Toolkit Rendering Classes

Usage

vtkImageActor is used to render an image in a 3D scene. The image is placed at the origin of the image, and its size is controlled by the image dimensions and image spacing. The orientation of the image is orthogonal to one of the x-y-z axes depending on which plane the image is defined in. vtkImageActor duplicates the functionality of combinations of other VTK classes in a convenient, single class.

To create an instance of class vtkImageActor, simply invoke its constructor as follows

  obj = vtkImageActor
