[vtkusers] Re: Flattening a surface

[Iryna Pavlyshak]

>Hey Goodwin,

 I don't have any idea about itk, but the filter which you wrote about will be very useful for me.
A question:
Is itk compatible with vtk? Can i output data form ITK filter sent as input to VTK filters or Mapper for example?

thanks,

iryna
