[Paraview] Probe point clouds / Point to sphere generation

[shawn mckenziie]

Randy,
I have loaded the filter and it appears on the filter menu but it is
unhighlighted for every type of data set i try to apply it to. It only takes
a point cloud as an input, correct? As it stands i cannot make it available
to any sata set or type. Does this sound familiar?
