[Paraview] Apply Clip Filter using Python

[Dominic Jennewein]

No, sorry... :(
I marked the object in the pipeline and added this line:

pipe00=GetActiveSource()
clip01=Clip(Input=pipe00)
clip01.InsideOut=1
clip01.ClipType = "Box"
clip01.ClipType.Scale=[0.5,0.5,0.5]
clip01.UpdatePipeline()
Render()

after that, I used the "Extract Surface" Filter and had to apply the Clip
again.

But still thank you!
