Yes.<br><br>If the data needs a name (or Identifier) for every point, then we use a point data vtkIdType attribute array and mark this array as the GLOBAL_IDS. When this is done, then the point id for any given point is the value in the id array for that point and not the point's index or location within the point array.

Is it true that the index of a point, in an array of points, is not always its<br>"point id". For example, points at index 0,1,2 may have point ids of 27,19,42.<br><br>I'm working on a filter with vtkStructuredGrid coming in and vtkPolyData going
