[Paraview] copy-paste (or ,> clone/dublicate)

[Ian Krukow]

Hi Martina,

obviously, the error does not depend on the version of ParaView (I have 
3.14.1 and 3.98.0), but on the filter. My first try was with the 
WarpByVector filter, because I had it in the first file I opened, and it 
worked. With the Clip filter, I get the error, too.

Maybe, there is an error report or a plan to fix it (maybe someone on 
the list knows about it??).
I'm sorry, that I can't help you more.

Kind regards
Ian
