Re: [wxVTK] Timer start failed

[Ruopeng W. <rp...@nm...>]

Hi Mathieu,

Thank you so much for your quick reply. I don't know how to turn on the 
interactor mode for those tests. However, in "RenderingCxxTest", there 
is an option for TestInteractorTimers, it seems to be working for me... 
anyway, I don't mind using vtk5.0 for now. Just want to clarify, by 
vtk5.0 do you mean vtk5.0.x? Or only vtk5.0.0?

Thank you,

Ruopeng
