Summary0001914: SNL: Volume rendering does not work correctly on vector data
DescriptionWhen you color by a vector field in 'surface' mode. ParaView colors by the magnitude of that vector field by default. When you switch on volume rendering you get a very dark volume rendering. If I use the calc to compute a scalar field of mag(V) then is works fine. Would like the default behavior for volume rendering a vector field to be very much like surface rendering.... render the magnitude by default and then let user choose components if they want.

Okay, based on conversation with Amy...skip computing the magnitudes. Please have a vector field just default to the x component as the field to volume render. The user also needs to be able to select the x,y, or z component to volume render on.
