// .NAME vtkCutter - Cut vtkDataSet with user-specified implicit function
// .SECTION Description
// vtkCutter is a filter to cut through data using any subclass of
// vtkImplicitFunction. That is, a polygonal surface is created
// corresponding to the implicit function F(x,y,z) = value(s), where
// you can specify one or more values used to cut with.
//
// In VTK, cutting means reducing a cell of dimension N to a cut surface
// of dimension N-1. For example, a tetrahedron when cut by a plane (i.e.,
// vtkPlane implicit function) will generate triangles. (In comparison,
// clipping takes a N dimensional cell and creates N dimension primitives.)
//
// vtkCutter is generally used to "slice-through" a dataset, generating
// a surface that can be visualized. It is also possible to use vtkCutter
// to do a form of volume rendering. vtkCutter does this by generating
// multiple cut surfaces (usually planes) which are ordered (and rendered)
// from back-to-front. The surfaces are set translucent to give a
// volumetric rendering effect.
//
// Note that data can be cut using either 1) the scalar values associated
// with the dataset or 2) an implicit function associated with this class.
// By default, if an implicit function is set it is used to clip the data
// set, otherwise the dataset scalars are used to perform the clipping.

  //      all contour values are processed. This is the default.
  //   Sort by cell = 1 - For each contour value, all cells are processed.
  //      This order should be used if the extracted polygons must be rendered
  //      in a back-to-front or front-to-back order. This is very problem
  //      dependent.
  // For most applications, the default order is fine (and faster).
  //
  // Sort by cell is going to have a problem if the input has 2D and 3D cells.
  // Cell data will be scrambled becauses with
  // vtkPolyData output, verts and lines have lower cell ids than triangles.

  // This is a temporary fix until we convert this class and contour filter
  // to generate unstructured grid output instead of poly data, I am leaving it here.
