Unfortunately some of the locator api is pass by reference and therefore not wrapped by python. Bastian, let us know if you run into missing methods when trying to use the cell locator in python.<br><br>Pat<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

Bastian wants to use the cell locator in a python programmable --<br>

You can create a cell locator in your programmable filter simply by:<br>
<br>
locator = vtk.vtkCellLocator()<br>
