Graphics::VTK::Pipeline - VTK Visual Pipeline Browser
use Graphics::VTK::Pipeline; Your VTK pipeline setup code here . . . # Show the visualization pipeline in a Tk window: Graphics::VTK::Pipeline::show($renderWindow);
This is a perl port of Paul Rajlich's tcl/tk VTK pipeline browser.
It will display the layout of the VTK visualization pipeline in your perl program using a Tk tree widget. Clicking on a particular element in the tree will display the VTK objects information in a window to the right of the tree.
Information on the original tcl/tk browser is available at: http://brighton.ncsa.uiuc.edu/prajlich/vtkPipeline
See the examples/pipeline directory of the Graphics::VTK Source distribution for some example scripts that use this module.
The VTK-object edit capability of Paul's original browser is not implemented yet.
Variables names are not displayed in the pipeline browser, just the object types. Due to the way Perl hides Lexical variables from the symbol table, I don't know of a way around this problem. If anybody has any good ideas, let me know.
vtkCubeAxesActor2D actors don't appear to show up in the pipeline.
