When I select that representation and "Yes" to the box regarding possibly taking a while, I have only a white/blank Render View. This is the case regardless of coloring, colormap, or lighting options. Sometimes if I rotate the view, I'll see a pseudo-surface representation, but when I stop I return to a fully white render view.</div><div><br></div><div>In 5.4.0, I create the Volume by first Tetrahedraliz'ing my data set and then selecting Volume representation. Conversely, if I load the same data in 5.2.0 and select Volume directly, it plots as I would expect. If I try to do the same in 5.3.0, it hangs on the render (status bar at the bottom gets ~80% of the way and doesn't appear to proceed further).</div><div><br></div><div>Note that if I plot the same data in VisIt, it shows a Volume as I would expect and quickly enough that I don't believe impatience to be my issue (the data set is relatively small).</div><div><br></div><div>Any thoughts are appreciated.</div><div><br></div><div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Please contact me with any comments, questions, or concerns.</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Thank you,</div><div style="font-size:12.8px">Joel</div><div style="font-size:12.8px"><br></div><span style="font-size:12.8px">Joel A.
