VTKInputInfos¶

MLModule¶

genre	`VTKAdapters`
author	`MeVis Medical Solutions AG`
package	`MeVisLab/VTK`
dll	`MLVTKAdapters`
definition	MLVTKAdapters.def
see also	`Info`, `VTKOutputSelector`
keywords	`status`, `input`, `information`

Purpose¶

VTKInputInfos checks the connected module, if possible it reads some information from it, and then it shows values and settings from that module in the user interface. It is especially useful to get settings and information about VTK classes and objects which are not shown in their module interfaces.With simple field connections these parameters can easily be used to configure other modules. Note that values can be read only read from appropriate connected objects; from other objects they cannot be read and will be reset to defaults (typically 0).

Tips¶

Usually this module is useful to get some values (such as Scalar Range of a data set) and to connect the read values to another module which needs this information. Typically these connections are established with field connections in module networks.
