There has been a lot of talk about API. Do we want a declarative UI? This would make constructs such as,
vtkChart *chart = vtkChart::New();
chart->SetWidth(200)
->SetHeight(200);
chart->AddPlot(vtkChart::BAR)
->SetData(table, 1, 2)
->SetWidth(20)
->SetLabel("My Data");
This would require setter functions that returned a pointer to the object, i.e.
vtkChart * vtkChart::SetWidth(int width); vtkPlot * vtkChart::AddPlot(enum); vtkPlot * vtkPlot::SetLabel(const char *label);
