<p><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>In a
followup to yesterday's question, is there any way to have the image that is
displayed on the Tiled-display rendered to the local client as well?
Right now my local Paraview client shows just bounding boxes. The
geometry in question is far too big to have the "geometry" send back
(Which it seems there is a "Client Collect" option for), I really
just need framebuffers composited & sent back (Like in the
MPIRenderModule). <br>
<br>
Is there a way to enable such behavior? I know the resolution would, of
course, be much worse on the single display but it would help alot in just
knowing what's going on. Also, it seems the options to "<st1:place
w:st="on"><st1:PlaceName w:st="on">Set</st1:PlaceName> <st1:PlaceType w:st="on">Center</st1:PlaceType></st1:place>"
doesn't work on the client unless the geometry is shown (Presumably because the
OpenGL query stuff doesn't work if no geomtry is shown). <br clear=all>
