<p class=MsoNormal>I have a vtkPolyData mesh with scalar data and a
vtkBandedPolyDataContourFilter. I am trying to use pickers to get the
scalar data at a point. It works with a vtkCanvas, but <b>not with a
vtkPanel</b>. Here is the code I use in the addWindowSetObserver method
to make the picker work. I want it to work with a vtkPointPicker and with
a vtkPanel. The problem is that vtkPanels do not have a getIren() method
like the vtkCanvas.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Courier New"'>
});<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I tried creating a vtkRenderWindowInteractor and setting the
render window to renWin.GetRenderWindow(). However, the picker doesn’t
work when I do this; it only works with the vtkCanvas. Is there any way
you can implement pickers with the vtkPanel, or can it only be done with a
vtkCanvas?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks in advance!<o:p></o:p></p>
