FlyingFrogSkinAndTissueB

VTKEx/Cxx/Visualization/FlyingFrogSkinAndTissueB

Description

The complete frog without skin.

This example is a modification of ViewFrogSkinAndTissue using vtkFlyingEdges3D for contouring. However there is an option to use vtkMarchingCubes instead.

Info

See Figure 12-9b in Chapter 12 of the VTK Textbook.
