[vtkusers] Is there a better way to delete cells from PolyData then....

[Jingyi Jin]

Or you can declare an IdList to keep the cellIds of
the original mesh, then delete ID from it whenever you
want to delete a cell. At the end you can call

newMesh->CopyCells(oldMesh, IdList);

This way, only the cells in the IdList will be copied
to the new mesh.
