Ok, I found a way now. I will post it here for the benefit of future readers.<br>
I had to apply two filters to the data. First 'Extract Suface' and then ' Warp by Scalar'.<br>
<br>
However, I encountered another problem now. While these filters worked
fine on one file they made Paraview crash on another. The only
difference between the two files as far as I can see is that the latter
has holes in its z-dimensions indicated by 'nan'. is this a problem for
paraview.<br><br>xian<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 19 November 2010 14:49, David Doria <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:daviddoria@gmail.com">daviddoria@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

</div></div>Ah, nice. It seems to change (disable) the visibility of the pipeline<br>
objects though when switching from a 2D to 3D view.<br>

(Sorry Xian, you're thread kind of got hijacked).<br>
