// .NAME vtkImplicitWindowFunction - implicit function maps another implicit function to lie within a specified range
// .SECTION Description
// vtkImplicitWindowFunction is used to modify the output of another
// implicit function to lie within a specified "window", or function
// range. This can be used to add "thickness" to cutting or clipping
// functions. 
//
// This class works as follows. First, it evaluates the function value of the 
// user-specified implicit function. Then, based on the window range specified,
// it maps the function value into the window values specified. 
//

// .SECTION See Also
// vtkImplicitFunction
