I don't understand your question.  Can you clarify it?

Are you perhaps asking if you need to write out, for example, the triangle 
faces of each tetrahedron you write out?  (Answer: no.)  Are you asking if you 
can define a point, line, or triangle in 3D space?  (Answer: yes.)

Hello,

I'm not familiar with all of the plugins in paraview, but I am wondering 
whether I need to write lower order elements in my vtk files for flexibility.

All of my data is point based.

I am thinking that:

if 1d:
    Write Lines
if 2d:
    Write Triangles
if 3d:
    Write Tetrahedron

Would there be any reason to write lines and triangles in 3d to the output file?

Thanks,

Juan
