> I'll check the meaning of MTime. See the implementation of vtkSetMacro() in vtkSetGet.h. Every time the value changes, it call this->Modified() which updates the MTime. Since VTK is a demand-driven pipeline, changes to MTime is what tells the pipeline that the algorithm has been modified and needs reexecution. If one modifies the MTime in RequestData() (the method called by the pipeline to process the input to produce output), the pipeline thinks the filter is always dirty and that can cause unexpected side effects.

I'll get back to you. _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Search the list archives at: http://markmail.org/search/?q=ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/mailman/listinfo/paraview
