0006071: Bad widget behavior in line source
When creating a Line Source in ParaView 3.2.1 (Sources-->Line) and choosing either the X Axis, Y Axis, or Z Axis buttons, a point is effectively created instead of a line. The "line" goes from -3.47e-266 to 3.47e-266 for the X Axis button. Similar results occur for the Y and Z buttons. The problem is that e-266 is effectively zero.
Thanks to Paul Adams for reporting this bug.

Clint,
I have no idea what you did, or what should be done, but the line source widget is still very wrong. I see numerous issues:

Run ParaView
Sources/ Line (Don't hit accept yet)
Rotate the line. Notice that you can see the yellow and green center line.
Hit "Y Axis". Notice you see the red and green center lines.
Accept.
1) The line has now grown to about 10 times the pre-accepted line. (trivial)
2) The center cross has disappeared. I could not get it to come back.
3) Hit the line source eyeball. The line does not go away.

One more bug:
4) "Edit/ Delete All". The cross never appears, but you end up with one colored line.

What used to happen was if you create a line source, and before you hit accept, click the "Y Axis" button and it would shrink down to a point. Now it stays a line.

To reply to your issues:
1) line grows by 10 times
   because when one creates the first object for a window, the window is zoomed to fit the object
2) center cross disappears
   the center cross dimensions changed to fit the line, so one of them coincides with the line itself and the other two lines are zero length
3) hit the eyeball and line doesn't go away
   is it actually the center cross line you see?
4) edit/delete all
   cross appears, but as before, two of the lines are zero length.

Can we make a separate bug for the center cross issue?

3) hit the eyeball and line doesn't go away
  because what you're seeing is the 3d widget for manipulating the line. The 3d Widget visibility isn't controlled by the eyeball.

Agreed. All those artifacts are the correct behavior for a 1 dimensional source.
