[vtkusers] filter for shifting dataset?

[Louis Desjardins]

thanks for yoru reply,

so if i have a type of dataset which i am translating (say i am translating 
the whole dataset), where does this fit into the pipeline,
i.e. i guess then where would I Get/Set the DataSet's PointSet..?

thanks again,

LD
