vtkVolumeProMapper

Section: Visualization Toolkit Volume Rendering Classes

Usage

vtkVolumeProMapper is the superclass for VolumePRO volume rendering mappers. Any functionality that is general across all VolumePRO implementations is placed here in this class. Subclasses of this class are for the specific board implementations. Subclasses of that are for underlying graphics languages. Users should not create subclasses directly - a vtkVolumeProMapper will automatically create the object of the right type.

If you do not have the VolumePRO libraries when building this object, then the New method will create a default renderer that will not render. You can check the NumberOfBoards ivar to see if it is a real rendering class. To build with the VolumePRO board see vtkVolumeProVP1000Mapper.h for instructions.
