What Brian is suggesting is definitely the way to go. However, it may not work. The EnSight reader produces the new multi-block format (hence all the issues in 2.4) and D3 might not work well with it. This is something we will address in the next release.

Ahh.. You have to invoke a filter that will request ghost cells (like extract surface) before D3 will compute ghost cells. :)<br><br>Try adding an 'Extract Surface' filter after D3 and then show the surface in wireframe. :)
