Hi Guys,

Has anybody tried to open data of  honolulu.vtk which is included in VTK
textbook?

I tried to open it with following Tcl code (which is the code of Tcl file of
deciHawa.tcl included in VTK textbook)

vtkPolyDataReader reader
reader SetFileName "$env(VTK_TEXTBOOK_DATA)/honolulu.vtk"

vtkPolyDataMapper hawaiiMapper

hawaiiMapper SetInput [reader GetOutput]

I ended up with no any ploygon showing on my screen.   Data file of
honolulu.vtk is 15 M. I tried other large data. It seems that VTK has some
problem with handling huge data. Can anybody tell me how to deal with huge
data such as over 60M?

Thanks/
