[Paraview] reflection filter-mirror half solution

[Simone Crippa]

Hi,

I have also seen problems with the reflection filter on certain datasets 
(Ensight, multiple datasets). Then the reflection filter just isn't 
selectable. Instead of wondering about the "why" at first, I just found 
a quick fix by using an other filter that works with my datasets.

I use "vtkTransformFilter"; Filter->Transform (PV2.4). I then specify a 
transformation of: Translate: 0 0 0 ; Scale: -1 -1 -1 ; Orientation: 0 
180 0 ... for e.g. getting a reflection about the y-plane. Changing the 
orientation angles (0 or 180) should reflect around the other two planes.


Regards, Simone
