[Paraview-developers] [Paraview] Temporal Streamlines

[Yuanxin Liu]

Hi,

Looks like you are using an older version of ParaView.  I have recently
made a number of changes to the particle tracing.  You can find a summary
on page of 11 the Kitware Source July
issue<http://www.kitware.com/media/thesource/jul2012.html>
.

Please try the lastest development version and let me know if you have any
problems.

Leo
