I will not comment on the custom filters, but I would like to mention that
clipping twice will use a lot of memory - you might be better off to use a
vtkBox implicit function to clip in one pass (invert/insideout the box function
and align it so a corner overlaps your data). (Caveat, there may not be a handy
paraview wrapper for the box function so you might have to do it yourself)<br>

<p><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'><!-- Converted from text/rtf format -->Am I correct that you
still cannot use custom filters to "glue" two filters together?
For instance, if I want to have two clip filters, both at 90 degrees from each
other, cut out a corner of a dataset, is it possible to create a custom filter
with the output of the first clip going into the input of the second clip?</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
