It appears that the volume renderer does not support cell data, although that 
message is clearly misleading.  Perhaps someone who knows more about the volume 
renderer could elaborate.

The contour filter does not work with cell data because a contour is a bit ill 
defined for cell data (which has no explicit interpolation of data).  You will 
have to convert to point data somehow before the contour filter will work.

Hi,

I'm trying to visualize a *.vti file containing some CellData and I get the 
usual:
"Cannot volume render since no point (or cell)data available." which is 
incorrect.
Furthermore, it seems that contouring is also disabled with CellData.

Is there a way to perform Volume and Contour visualization in that case?
If not, will this option be available in the next release?

Many thanks in advance for your help.

Nick
