[Paraview] Xdmf - Topology-Bu (UNCLASSIFIED)

Its just a bit confusing, because everywhere (eg. DataItem) else the 
keyword "Dimensions" expects first x,y,z and not z,y,x

I think "Dimensions" should behave always the same.

Greetings
Jens

see this part of my xdmf-file:
     <Grid Collection="Main-0.1" Name="1-1-1">
       <Time Value="0.1" />

       <Topology Type="3DCORECTMESH" Dimensions="3 256 256"> </Topology>

         <Geometry Type="ORIGIN_DXDYDZ">
           <DataStructure
		Name="Origin" DataType="Float"
		Dimensions="3" Format="XML">
             0 0 0
           </DataStructure>
           <DataStructure
		Name="Spacing" DataType="Float"
		Dimensions="3" Format="XML">
             1.0 1.0 1.0
           </DataStructure>
         </Geometry>

       <Attribute
		Active="1" Type="Scalar"
		Center="Node" Name="U-Velocity">
         <DataItem
		ItemType="Uniform" Format="HDF"
		NumberType="Float" Precision="8" Dimensions="256 256 3">
             ic_256x256x3.h5:/flow/velocity/u
          </DataItem>
       </Attribute>
