[Paraview] LOD Algorithm

[Robert Maynard]

Hi,

What you want to do is derive a new class from vtkGeometryRepresentation and
than override the member variable Decimator with your own LOD algorithm. You
will than need to change all objects to use your new representation, or
create a new view where this representation is used.
