Hey Natalie,

There are also a bunch of examples of building unstructured grids with various types of cells if you follow the link for test code in the doxygen page for vtkUnstructuredGrid (Tests).

Hi!
I´m writing a filter that has as output an Unstructured Grid. As far as I know, to specify that grid, I need to specify the points and the cells. I´m
wondering how to specify the cells - I need quadrilaterals. How can I
specify them? I need a routine which lets me specify the points (4 in that case) and then insert it into a vtkCellList, which I can assign to the
output.

thx,
Natalie
