Summary0012082: Paraview loss of precision for ascii load of polydata
DescriptionWhen loading a polydata file with ascii values, for large coordinate values it appears the points are loaded with a loss of precision.

I'm using files with coordinates such as:
[x,y,z] = [779091.061000 6167357.363000 616.540987];

Sure, I can offset all the coordinates back towards zero in my program, which of course makes sense numerically.
Steps To ReproduceSee attached files in problemReport.tar.gz

input.vtk exhibits the error.
input_offset.vtk works fine (values are offset closer to zero).

I've tried with the XML .vtp file format (but still using ascii numbers) and the problem is the same.
