The probe filter can be used to query a data set for point or cell data.
 
Options for the probe filter are:
* Show point button is used to show where the center of the sphere is for generating the probe points.
* Center on bounds will place the sphere center at the center of the data set's bounds.
* The sphere center can either be set in the properties tab of the object inspector or in the 3d view with the mouse cursor.  To choose a new point in the 3d view window, press P and then click on the desired point.  Note that the Show Point option must be selected.
 
The output for this filter is a single cell comprised of a set of points in a vtkPolyData.
