[Paraview] trouble reading in netCDF file

Hi,

I am trying to read in a netCDF file using Paraview 3.6.2.  It can 'see' the netCDF file, but when I attempt to read in the file by pressing 'Apply', I get the following error message:  

ERROR: In /home/kitware/ParaView3/Utilities/BuildScripts/ParaView-3.6/ParaView3/Servers/Filters/vtkTexturePainter.cxx, line 280
vtkTexturePainter (0xb8a0000): Incorrect dimensionality.

I'm not sure which netCDF release created the netCDF file.  However, I read in a previous post that paraview 3.6.1 could handle netCDF 4, and since  "all netCDF files ever written can always be read by the latest netCDF release. That is, we guarantee backward data compatibility" then 3.6.2 should be able to handle my netCDF file (which wasn't created too recently).

I can read the netCDF file into MATLAB, so it isn't corrupt.

So what's the problem?

thanks
Joel
