Re: [vmtk-users] vtk ASCII output

[Luca A. <luc...@or...>]

Hi Elaine,
 centerlines work exactly like surfaces, in the sense that you can write 
them out using vmtksurfacewriter, with the extra-caveat that you have to pipe 
the output to the writer explicitly, this way:

vmtkcenterlines -ifile foo.vtp [...other options...] --pipe vmtksurfacewriter -i @.o -mode ascii -ofile foo.vtk

To learn more about piping, read the basic pypes tutorial on vmtk.org

Best,

Luca
