Dear Paraview users,
I wrote following vtu-file with python. It should generate two triangles.
The problem is, when paraview reads the data, the coordinates of the first point (here: 25.0,25.0,0.0) are always set to zero, although the values are obviously not zero.
Here is my vtu-file:


Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<VTKFile type="UnstructuredGrid" version="0.1">
<UnstructuredGrid>
<Piece NumberOfPoints="     4 " NumberOfCells="     2 ">
<Points>
<DataArray type="Float64" Name="nodes" NumberOfComponents=" 3" Format="ascii">

   -2.5000000000000000E+01    2.5000000000000000E+01    0.0000000000000000E+00

I am thankful for any advise and help.

Problem solved.
My error was, in connectivity-array, I started counting from 1, not 0.
