You can, but you should also be able to open the file directly with the csv reader as long as your paraview isn't too old (3.8 or newer if memory serves). > > After loading the vtk-file I use the gyph-icon both in 3D view (which works > well) and in Spreadsheet view.

You are probably looking at the points of the glyphs, which will only be the same thing as in the input data if your glyph type is 2D Glyph, Vertex and you aren't subsampling. > > I hope you can help.
