Re: [wxVTK] Problems with wxMac 2.6.2

[Mathieu M. <mma...@ny...>]

Sample: I don't really understand what is going on. I'll try to 
duplicate the problem (I have now access to a Mac machine)

SplitSample: This is due to the lack of support of Carbon in VTK 4.4.2, 
I need to update wxVTK to work with VTK 5.0. Wait and see (or patch 
welcome:)
