[vtkusers] Need method to associate "string" labels with points/cells

[Eric F. Sorton]

Hi All,

I've been trying to find a way to associate "string" labels with point/cell
data within VTK.  I am able to use vtkLabeledDataMapper in conjunction with
vtkCellCenters to place a number (the VTK Id) in the center of a cell.
However, I am unable to place an arbituary text string there.

For example, one of the example applications provided with VTK is eleState.tcl
(found in Graphics/Testing/Tcl).  I am looking for a technique that would allow
me to place the two letter state abbreviation at the center of each state.

Any help would be appreciated,

Eric
