[Paraview] Problem with large VTK format file

[Robert Maynard]

Hi,

While you can enable 64bit Ids with VTK_USE_64BIT_IDS it will not fix the
issue with vtkRectilinearGridReader not being able to load files with more
than 2^31 points. I would recommend that you write out the new XML format
for those files. You should also report a bug that
the vtkRectilinearGridReader doesn't support more than 2^32 points.
