Hi Ido,
you shouldn't use vmtkrenderer twice along the pipe:
vmtksurfacereader -ifile CT_centerlines.vtp --pipe vmtkrenderer --pipe
vmtksurfaceviewer -array MaximumInscribedSphereRadius --pipe vmtksurfacereader
-ifile CT_smoothed.vtp --pipe vmtkrenderer --pipe vmtksurfaceviewer -opacity
0.25
Everytime you use a vmtkrenderer, you are basically instantiating a fresh
rendering window. In fact, you don't need vmtkrenderer if you only use one
vmtksurfaceviewer, because the viewer builds its internal renderer if it
doesn't find one available along the pipe.
If you have to make all viewers share one renderer, you instantiate one early
on along the pipe, and the viewers will automatically detect it and use it for
placing their stuff in it. However, if you put another vmtkrenderer, the latter
will replace the former, as in your case.
Long story short, here's how you should do it:
vmtksurfacereader -ifile CT_centerlines.vtp --pipe vmtkrenderer --pipe
vmtksurfaceviewer -array MaximumInscribedSphereRadius --pipe vmtksurfacereader
-ifile CT_smoothed.vtp --pipe vmtksurfaceviewer -opacity 0.25
But you can shorten everything this way (getting rid of the readers - in
general you need to use them explicitly if you have to set options on them,
otherwise the other scripts know how to read data the "standard" way):
vmtkrenderer --pipe vmtksurfaceviewer -ifile CT_centerlines.vtp -array
MaximumInscribedSphereRadius --pipe vmtksurfaceviewer -ifile CT_smoothed.vtp
-opacity 0.25
Best regards
Luca
