Detailed Description

transform points and associated normals and vectors

vtkTransformFilter is a filter to transform point coordinates, and associated point normals and vectors. Other point data is passed through the filter.

An alternative method of transformation is to use vtkActor's methods to scale, rotate, and translate objects. The difference between the two methods is that vtkActor's transformation simply effects where objects are rendered (via the graphics pipeline), whereas vtkTransformFilter actually modifies point coordinates in the visualization pipeline. This is necessary for some objects (e.g., vtkProbeFilter) that require point coordinates as input.

Member Function Documentation

vtkTransformFilter* vtkTransformFilter::New  )  [static]
 

Create an object with Debug turned off, modified time initialized to zero, and reference counting on.

Reimplemented from vtkAlgorithm.

virtual const char* vtkTransformFilter::GetClassName  )  [virtual]
 

Reimplemented from vtkPointSetToPointSetFilter.

int vtkTransformFilter::IsTypeOf const char *  type  )  [static]
 

Return 1 if this class type is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkPointSetToPointSetFilter.

virtual int vtkTransformFilter::IsA const char *  type  )  [virtual]
 

Return 1 if this class is the same type of (or a subclass of) the named class. Returns 0 otherwise. This method works in combination with vtkTypeRevisionMacro found in vtkSetGet.h.

Reimplemented from vtkPointSetToPointSetFilter.

vtkTransformFilter* vtkTransformFilter::SafeDownCast vtkObject o  )  [static]
 

Reimplemented from vtkPointSetToPointSetFilter.

void vtkTransformFilter::PrintSelf ostream &  os,
vtkIndent  indent
[virtual]
 

Methods invoked by print to print information about the object including superclasses. Typically not called by the user (use Print() instead) but used in the hierarchical print process to combine the output of several classes.

Reimplemented from vtkPointSetToPointSetFilter.

unsigned long vtkTransformFilter::GetMTime  )  [virtual]
 

Return the MTime also considering the transform.

Reimplemented from vtkObject.

virtual void vtkTransformFilter::SetTransform vtkAbstractTransform  )  [virtual]
 

Specify the transform object used to transform points.

virtual vtkAbstractTransform* vtkTransformFilter::GetTransform  )  [virtual]
 

Specify the transform object used to transform points.

void vtkTransformFilter::Execute  )  [protected, virtual]
 

This method is the old style execute method

Reimplemented from vtkSource.
