Hi David,<br>
<br>
I think that the issue is that the polygon you constructed is not
convex. Figure 19-20 in VTK users guide is misleading because the
example of VTK_POLYGON shows a non-convex polygon which as you found
out doesn't work.<br>

vtkPolygon, then put it in a vtkPolyData, and then saved it as a
vtp file (attached). When I open it in Paraview, it looks very
"broken" (seems like backfaces are showing, things are overlapping
that shouldn't be, etc). If I run the TriangleFilter on it, it
looks fine. Is there something wrong with how I created the data?
Or is Paraview just not able to handle displaying something like
this?
