[Paraview-developers] InputArrayDomain not working as expected from proxylist

[Cory Quammen]

David,

I don't believe you can refer to an InputArrayDomain defined in one
proxy definition from another.

Try copying the InputArrayDomains for ScalarArrays and VectorArrays to
the XML definition for the InputProperty in your MyFilter proxy.

HTH,
Cory
