This is a frequent topic and just as a friendly suggestion, if you didn't
already, try using the VTK mail archive search engine at:
   http://www.kitware.com/search.html

But to answer your question, instead of using vtkScalars now, just use
vtkFloatArray.  Your other line, ...SetScalars(floatarray), should work fine.
