Hmm, that's odd. Does it make a difference if you do things in the following order:
* Add Programmable Filter * Change the output type to vtkUnstructuredGrid * Paste in script * Hit Apply now, but only after the first steps have been completed I recall that there is some funny behavior if you apply the filter and then change the output data type, so my guess is to make sure the output data type is set before applying.
