void PrintSelf(ostream& os, vtkIndent indent);
void SetLowPoint(float, float, float);
void SetLowPoint(float *);
float *GetLowPoint();
void GetLowPoint(float data[3]);
void SetHighPoint(float, float, float);
void SetHighPoint(float *);

void SetScalarRange(float *);
float *GetScalarRange();
void GetScalarRange(float data[2]);

DESCRIPTION

vtkElevationFilter is a filter to generate scalar values from a dataset. The scalar values lie within a user specified range, and are generated by computing a projection of each dataset point onto a line. The line can be oriented arbitrarily. A typical example is to generate scalars based on elevation or height above a plane.

SUMMARY

void SetLowPoint(float, float, float)
void SetLowPoint(float *)
Define one end of the line (small scalar values).

void SetHighPoint(float, float, float)
void SetHighPoint(float *)
Define other end of the line (large scalar values).

void SetScalarRange(float, float)
void SetScalarRange(float *)
Specify range to map scalars into.

vtkElevationFilter()
Construct object with LowPoint=(0,0,0) and HighPoint=(0,0,1). Scalar range is (0,1).
