[vtkusers] Creating a simple mesh of lines

[Gregory Propf]

Perhaps I wasn't clear.  This is not a mesh for one of the vtk primitives for which a wireframe is available.  It's a data structure that I created with nodes corresponding to the finite elements and edges that represent how these are interconnected.  I represent the nodes with spheres and I want to show the edges as lines connecting them.  I've had some luck with vtkUnstructuredGrid but in my other post you can see some problems I'm having there.

Won't the wireframe representaion suffice?

I'm working on a finite element tool and need to show the edges in the mesh as lines.  I've tried various things based on the examples I've found but many of the examples seem way too complex and break when I modify them.  Also I'm unsure exactly which vtk object to use to represent this.  Can someone post a simple Python script (other languages OK too but I'm using Python).  Ideally, I'd like an object that can show both the edges and the nodes with different colors for each.  For now, I'm making a bunch of spheres for the node points.
