That seems to work. But I have another problem now.<br><br>When I rotate the cylinder, the center don't remain in the original position where it is set. <div><br></div><div>Trying to being more clear, imagine my original cylinder is a clock hand pointing to number three. so the center is between the center of the clock and number three. When I rotate it for example 90, the hand is pointing to number twelve, so the center is not more between the center of the clock and number 3, instead is between center and number 12.</div>

Thank you for the response..<br><br>I am reading this : <a href="http://www.vtk.org/doc/release/5.6/html/a02007.html" target="_blank">http://www.vtk.org/doc/release/5.6/html/a02007.html</a> that I think is what I need. Because I don't have all the mapper and actor part and as it is said there, if I am not understanding wrong, vtkTransfrom work on the actor and rendering part, and vtkTransformPolyDataFilter directly on the rotation of the figure itself :<div>
