<p>Hello,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm really sorry for the confusion: When writing a file using ParaView I obtain 4.0 in the header, but I had a script to generate file from Matlab and for some reason I wrote 4.2 in the header of all my files. This didn't cause any problems with an older
version of ParaView 4.2.0, but throws a warning in ParaView 5.0.0. Problem solved and sorry again, that was unnecessary....!</p>
<p><br>

<p>Best, Thomas</p>

<div dir="ltr">Hi Thomas,
<div>I am surprised that version 4.2 gets in the file. In our last upgrade to the file format we increased the version from 3.0 to 4.0.</div>
<div>So format 4.2 is not out yet. I wonder if Paraview writes that.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>How did you generate the file?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thanks,</div>

I'm surprised your file didn't cause a complaint in ParaView 4.2. The<br>
legacy VTK file reader in VTK hasn't changed in quite some years. What<br>
software writes your VTK file? If it were written with VTK (perhaps by<br>
way of ParaView), the file version number should be 4.2.<br>
<br>
By the way, this shouldn't be a problem other than annoying you with<br>
the warning message.<br>
