[Paraview] x3d geometry export garbled?

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Ah. I wonder if that has something to do with remote rendering. Let's try
disabling remote rendering and then export the state. Can you try this:

+ from Edit | Settings dialog (on Mac, I believe this is under the ParaView
menu itself), open the "Render VIew" page and select "Server" page. There,
uncheck "Remote Render Threshold" (image attached). Now all rendering will
happen locally on the client side.

+ Now try and export the X3D (you may want to interact with the  just to
make sure that a render happens before you export the x3d state). Any
change?
