unrelated.</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"><br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">I have the algorithm working when I set the algorithm's input in an unofficial way (SetNumberOfInputPorts(0), using a custom function SetInput instead of SetInputConnection or SetInputData). This way there is no pipeline created, which I would like to happen.</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"><br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: HelveticaNeue,Helvetica

However, the function vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::VerifyOutputInformation() fails because this whole extent miraculously gets re-set to whole (3d) extent of the input.<br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">I have tried to prevent this check using outInfo->Set(vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::UNRESTRICTED_UPDATE_EXTENT(), 1) and</div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; font-family: HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">outInfo->Set(vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::EXACT_EXTENT(), 0) to no
