Detailed Description

transform points and associated normals and vectors for polygonal dataset

vtkTransformPolyDataFilter is a filter to transform point coordinates and associated point and cell normals and vectors. Other point and cell data is passed through the filter unchanged. This filter is specialized for polygonal data. See vtkTransformFilter for more general data.

An alternative method of transformation is to use vtkActor's methods to scale, rotate, and translate objects. The difference between the two methods is that vtkActor's transformation simply effects where objects are rendered (via the graphics pipeline), whereas vtkTransformPolyDataFilter actually modifies point coordinates in the visualization pipeline. This is necessary for some objects (e.g., vtkProbeFilter) that require point coordinates as input.
