<div style="direction: ltr;font-family: Tahoma;color: #000000;font-size: 10pt;">Right now, the LineMeshRenderDelegate behaves differently than the LineMesh geometry class implies. You can build a line mesh without connectivity information, and it still displays
a valid line mesh. Meanwhile, the connectivity information seems to have no effect on the visual mesh itself.

<p dir="ltr">LineSource is a filter that uses two points to create a PolyLine. PolyLine is a 1D cell. If the filter does not do enough and you need to create a PolyLine that goes through multiple points, you might have to create your own filter (just a callback
really) to update a PolyLine when you add points</p>
