I'm confused. Looking at the online help at
http://paraview.org/OnlineHelpCurrent/ViewMenu.html#Representation
http://paraview.org/OnlineHelpCurrent/Display.html#Style
it is written
"[...] Selecting Points displays the vertices of the dataset as points.
The Wireframe option shows all the edges of the cells in the
dataset as lines. [...]"
Note that it is written 'the vertices of the dataset' and 'all
the edges of the cells' from which one (mistakenly?) deduces that
*all* points and *all* cells are shown? But apparently this is
not how it works???

OK. This helps. To get an even better visualization of my
Points, I've applied a Glyph filter with Sphere as a Glyph Type.
Now I see all my 20 points, but the wireframe is still wrong:

Note that:
1) no interior edges are shown
2) there are points on the surface of the tetrahedron that are
not connected to any edge... from which i deduce that the 'cells'
which are currently visible do not match with the cells that I
have defined in my .vtu file.
How can I make sure that the wireframe representation is
*exactly* the cell-configuration that I have specified in my .vtu
file?
Kind regards,
Bart
