Ignore that last email, but not the one before that. I figured out the
bug. scalars
needs a name
<http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.python.enthought.devel/28658>

I'm still confused why my data set is rotated and interprets the dataset in
a different way.

Also, in theory is there any difference between pipeline.volume(ImageData)
as described above and this method:

from vtk import vtkTIFFReader
reader=vtkTIFFReader()
reader.SetFileName(patchpath)
reader.Update()
image=reader.GetOutput()
mlab.pipeline.volume(tvtk.to_tvtk(image))

The second method with vtkTIFFReader seems to give me a dense block instead
of a volume that is mostly transparent, but maybe there is just some
opacity setting I am missing.

Thanks in anticipation,
Chris
