[Paraview] Filter with Personalized "Properties" tab

[Rafael March]

Ok,

thanks a lot, Kenneth ! One problem at a time ! :)

I've managed to add some QT Widgets in the properties tab by extending the pqAutoGeneratedObjectPanel. Now, how can I handle events generated by the GUI, in order to change properties of the model displayed in the screen ? I mean, how can I really connect my filter with the ObjectPanel ?

Thanks again !
Rafael March.

You can customize the GUI somewhat by modifying the server manager XML that
describes your filter.  For example, you can create a combo box in the GUI
by adding an EnumerationDomain to an IntVectorProperty or you could create a
checkbox by adding a BooleanDomain.

You can also create your own properties panel using Qt code.  The wiki page
on ParaView plugins has a simple example of customizing the auto-generated
panel.  You can provide even more customization (for example, by using your
own panel created in Qt Designer) by subclassing either pqNamedObjectPanel
or pqObjectPanel.
