Ah true. So, Krzysztof, if you're using higher order polynomials then you might wish to output with the number of subdivisions in build_patches() <https://www.dealii.org/8.4.1/doxygen/deal.II/classDataOut.html#a5eb51872b8736849bb7e8d2007fae086> equal to the polynomial order. This will give a better (although still not exact) visualisation of the approximated solution field.
