[Paraview] Displaying VTK non-linear cell types

Dear all,
I was trying to display VTK  non-linear cells. I used the following simple
data for VTK_QUADRATIC_QUAD type of cell:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# vtk DataFile Version 2.0
Unstructured Grid Example
ASCII

DATASET UNSTRUCTURED_GRID
POINTS 8 float
0.0 0.0 0.0
5.0 0.0 0.0
10.0 0.0 0.0
10.0 5.0 0.0
10.0 10.0 0.0
5.0 10.0 0.0
0.0 10.0 0.0
0.0 5.0 0.0

CELLS 1 9
8 0 2 4 6 1 3 5 7

CELL_TYPES 1
23
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I use the wireframe of surface for display, I get the triangles instead
of single quadrilateral. Is it not possible to display such non-linear cells
in paraview? I would appreciate your help.

Sincerely,
Hom NathGharti
