[Paraview] text data cisualization

[j michopoulos]

Dear Paraview folks,

I was able to import ASCII data of the form

X Y Z value

via the csv reader and the  TableToPoints filter and was able to 
visualize the colored points.

However I could NOT find an example anywhere that shows how to read the 
mesh data (nodal coords and connectivity data) or generate a 
triangulation from these nodes that will allow me to display surface and 
volume contours. Keep in mind hat the Delaunay 3D filter works only when 
the convex hull of the point cloud is coincides with the actual shape of 
the domain. It is therefore not working for the general case of 
non-convex  volumes of clouds.

Can anybody point out of an example on how to do this with Paraview 3.98 ?

Thank you!
