Hum... I didn't get what you told. The ruled surface filter works for 3D polylines, as soon as you have at least two of them. I just built a screw in ParaView with a LineSource, a SplineSource and the RuledSurfaceFilter. I am curious about the context in which it fails. Is it possible for you to share the polylines and the expected result?

It is not a reliable solution to my problem because it works in 2D and my contours are all but almost planars, which makes it very hard to find an appropriate transform. I finally wrote my own algorithm and, waiting to find a bad use case :-), it works for the time being.
Anyway thx for trying to help me.

Hi,

You can easily add the vtkRuledSurfaceFilter from VTK in ParaView. I already did it in my Peavip stuffs (http://github.com/jeromevelut/Peavip). If your polylines are in different sources (eg. two different SplineSources), you'll have to pass them through "Append Geometry" prior he RuledSurfaceFilter

    Hello,
    I have 2 polylines and I would like to create a ribbon between
    them, ie a triangulation. I did not find any suitable class but I
    wonder if I did not miss anything, any help?
