Polyhedron data not supported in vtkExtractUnstructuredGrid
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
This is been a problem for some time in vtk and Paraview. Extracting polhedron data causes memory faults. see http://paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=13043
The work around so far has been to either remove all polys or filter into a supported type.
However in paraview 4.1 the issue/bug is fixed. But in vtk 6.1 the issue remains (also in vtk6.0.0, vtk5.10)
I have uploaded a test which uses the polyhedron2pieces.vtu from the vtkData6.0.0
