If you are wanting to remove points from the polydata based on the
value of their points being < 0 or any individual point being < 0 then
I would suggest the vtkClipPolyData filter and write a quick custom
vtkImplicitFunction to supply to that filter or look at using the
vtkBox (Read the documentation carefully for vtkBox) as the
implicitfunction.
