VTK卷可视化问题

Question

I am using vtk library with C++ to generate and visualize some synthetic voxel data with given color and transparency mapping. An example is shown below:

As shown in the figure, the data is 3D in general, and it works great. However, in specific cases when the data becomes 2D, the visualization windows shows nothing .

I am posting few lines of my code which may be helpful.

imageData = vtkSmartPointer<vtkImageData>::New();
imageData->SetDimensions(X1, X2, X3); //For 2D, one of X1,X2 & X3=1
imageData->AllocateScalars(VTK_INT, 1);
int* I = new int[X1X2X3](); //int X1X2X3 = X1*X2*X3
I = static_cast<int*>(imageData->GetScalarPointer());

Please note that for 2D, either X1=1 or X2=1 or X3=1. Any suggestions?

EDIT: I am adding an equivalent code, which will demonstrate the exact problem I am facing:

CMakeLists.txt

#GRABBING VTK
find_package(VTK REQUIRED)
include(${VTK_USE_FILE})

add_executable(MAIN main.cpp)
target_link_libraries(MAIN ${VTK_LIBRARIES})

This leads to an output like below (for, X1=X2=X3=10)

However if I make X1=1, the output window is empty.

EDIT:

I just observed that the number of voxels along a certain dimension, displayed on the screen are always one less than the maximum number of voxels in that dimensions. For example, if X1=X2=X3=10, the number of voxels in each dimensions which are displayed on vtkwindow is 9. This is not what I would expect. I think this is the problem with X1=1, which makes 1-1=0 voxel display. Any suggestions??

Answer 1

This remained unanswered for long. So I am adding my solution/workaround. I had to add an extra dummy layer in each dimension of imagedata. [See this line in the code imageData->SetDimensions(X1 +1 , X2 + 1, X3 + 1); ]. Rest is self explanatory.

    renderer->ResetCamera();
    renderWindow->Render();
    renderWindowInteractor->Start();
    getchar();
    return 0;
}

Now the expected number of voxels in each dimensions (10 as per the code above), are correctly seen
