[Paraview-developers] Glyph Filter Uniform Spatial Distribution

[Mathieu Westphal]

Hi

I have a bunch of user angry at the default value of Uniform Spatial
Distribution for the Glyph Filter, because with small datasets it doesn't
generate anything and new users thinks the filter did not work.

I would say that i got distracted by it at first as well, and since the
settings is far down the panel , it is not easy to find at first use, and
for a toolbar enabled filter it's not good.

That being said, the easy fix is to change the default value AllPoints or
Every N'th Point which at least generate one glyph, what do you think about
that ?

Another fix would be to ensure Uniform Spatial Distribution generate at
least one glyph, but i'm afraid it would be incorrect algorithm wise ?

Any thougths on that ?
