[Paraview] How to extract a subdataset?

[Fred Fred]

This is exactly what I planned to do but since the number of points grows up as I extract the subset, even the writing process makes Paraview crashing due to memory allocation errors.
Thanks for the tip for using vtkExtractCellsByRegion instead, it actually gives the expected result!
Cheers

Fred
