You cannot change it, unless you modify the source code. It is<BR>
hard-coded to generate 8 points.<BR>
<BR>
Look in ./VTK/Graphics/vtkGlyphSource2D.cxx<BR>
<BR>
vtkGlyphSource2D::CreateCircle()<BR>

If I want to change, I will have to download the source and modify it and compile.. right? No other way?<BR>
