FW: [Paraview] Cutting cells of different dimension

Thanks for your reply.
For your information, I tried vtkKitwareCutter instead of vtkCutter and =
it
had the same problem.=20

Hi Julien,

The problem is in cell->Contour(...) (or maybe in the way vtkCutter is=20
using cell->Contour(...)).  What's happening is that when the cell =
contours=20
itself, it adds a new cell as necessary to the appropriate cell array=20
(verts, lines, or polys), which returns the id of the cell in that =
array.=20
Contour then uses that id to copy cell data to.  The problem is that if =

your data set has different types of cells, then the first vertex, =
line,=20
and polygon inserted will all have the same cell id.  I'll add this as =
a=20
bug report for VTK.
