Summary0008208: vtkPolyDataReader produces wrong InsertLocation for vtkCellArray
DescriptionHallo,

I am using vtkPolyData to manipulate Data, where for example I replace certain Cells and/or insert Cells at the end of the List. The manipulations work fine when I generate a grid from scratch.
A problem occurs when I want to read a Grid from a file and do the manipulations afterwards.

VTK-5.2.0

vtkPolyDataReader(), for example in line:
228: idArray = polys->WritePointer(ncells, size);

WritePointer initializes the InsertLocation to 0.
After the Data has been read the InsertLocation should be set to the end of the vtkCellArray.

I never used vtkUnstructureGrid before, but looking at the source code of the vtkUnstructuredGridReader all the signs are that the same problem will occur.

A python script with a testGrid is attached to demonstrate the issue of the InsertLocation in conjunction with the vtkPolyDataReader.
