Yes. The bug tracker (http://paraview.org/Bug/my_view_page.php) will
also work if there is no resolution.

In 3.2, you can apply the calculator filter with an expression of
iHat*coordsX + jHat *coordsY + kHat * coordsZ, then use the selection
labeling (at the bottom of the selection inspector panel) to show
"Result" in the 3D view.

In 3.4+, the spreadsheet view shows point coordinates automatically
and you don't need to do the above.
