Pass it through a vtkDecimatePolylineFilter. It should reduce the number of points. You can initialize the contour with those control points then. <br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Mar 15, 2011 at 8:09 AM, Xiaopeng Yang <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:yxp233@postech.ac.kr">yxp233@postech.ac.kr</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I applied vtkContourFilter to generate 2D contour lines over a series of mask images. Then I used vtkContourWidget to initialize the contour lines so that I can edit these contour lines by dragging control points located in these lines. However, the initialized contour lines include so many points that it is very hard to edit the contours. My question is how to reduce the number of contour points dramatically?</p>
