Section: Visualization Toolkit Rendering Classes
This mapper then takes that hierarchy (or hierarchies) as input, and every frame will decide which labels and/or icons to place in order of priority, and will render only those labels/icons. A label render strategy is used to render the labels, and can use e.g. FreeType or Qt for rendering.
To create an instance of class vtkLabelPlacementMapper, simply invoke its constructor as follows
