Dear Paraview community,

Attached is a simple .vtk file for my truss elements.

From the below picture it can be seen that the two truss elements normally show on the screen.

But, when the line width is set larger than 1, like 2, then the left truss is missing, which is shown in the following.

Can anybody tell me the reason for this? Thanks a lot!
