QtVtk

An integration between Qt Quick Controls 2 and VTK for 3D rendering

With this sample application you will be able to open multiple STL/OBJ files and view them in a 3D canvas. This 3D canvas is rendered using VTK but is immersed into a QML window, where you can overlay any QtQuickControls2 component. In this example we have added a ComboBox to change the models representation, a Slider to change their opacity, a Switch to enable Gouraud interpolation and three SpinBoxes to choose the RGB color.

The code was tested using Qt 5.9.4 and VTK 8.1.1 in both Linux and Windows.

How to build in Linux

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/nicanor-romero/QtVtk.git
   

2. Set the environmental variables

   $ export QTDIR=/path/to/Qt/5.9.4/gcc_64
   $ export VTK_DIR=/path/to/VTK-8.1.1/build_dir
   

3. Run CMake

   $ cd /path/to/QtVtk
   $ mkdir build && cd build
   $ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..
   

4. Compile the code

   $ make
   

5. Run the application

   $ cd build/
   $ ./QtVtk
