Summary0001590: Copying input instead of source point data in vtkGlyph3D
DescriptionAs far as I understand, for vtkGlyph3D, the point data copied to the output must come from the SOURCE and not the INPUT. This was correct in VTK < 4.5.

In vtkGlyph3D.cxx, line 268 is currently:
    pd = input->GetPointData();
This should be:
    pd = source->GetPointData();

And then on line 576:
        outputPD->CopyData(pd,inPtId,ptIncr+i);
Should be:
        outputPD->CopyData(pd,i,ptIncr+i);

Seems to interfere with other bug:
Bug #455 - Glyph does not pass all point data.

Closing bug. Preferer behavior was to copy from source.

Reopening bug. Frank reported that:

[What happens at the moment is that the ENTIRE data set(s) of the INPUT points are copied IN FULL to every glyph.

This means that if I have say a 1000 input points, each with say 10 scalar values, then all this data (1000x10) gets copied for each of the 1000 glyphs! VERY slow and memory intensive, which was what first alerted me that something was wrong.]

Does the problem still occur with VTK 5.10 ? VTK 6 ?

If this is still an issue in VTK6, please reopen.

I noticed that copying point-data depends on whether indexing is used or not.
When not using indexing, input point-data are copied, when indexing is used, source-point-data is copied.
