[vtkusers] vtkContourFilter not working on vtkStructuredGrid

[da]

Try a vtkAssignAttribute filter before the contour filter.

vtkAssignAttribute assignFilter = vtkAssignAttribute::New();
assignFilter->SetInput(sGrid);
assignFilter->Assign( {your scalar array name},
vtkDataSetAttributes::Scalars, vtkAssignAttribute::CELL_DATA);

...
scalarIsoSurface->SetInputConnection(assginFilter->GetOutputPort() );
