[vtkusers] vtkClipPolyData

[Sebastian Gatzka]

It doesn't work directly on a structured grid.
This is the error it is producing:

*ERROR: In ..\..\Vtk\Filtering\vtkDemandDrivenPipeline.cxx, line 828
vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline (0073B270): Input for connection index 
0 on input port index 0 for algorithm vtkClipPolyData(00739E18) is of 
type vtkStructuredGrid, but a vtkPolyData is required.*

I will give it a try with vtkDataSetSurfaceFilter and vtkGeometryFilter 
and get back to you.
If you have some other suggestions, please don't hestiate to write!
