[Paraview] Slice filter using PV3

[Sylvester Gerardson]

Berk,

I have compiled 3.2.0 and 3.3.0 from sources on SUSE. It would be no problem
to try the old transparency implementation there.
On Windows I do not have the option to recompile.

Thanks.

Sylvester

Hmmm. I am suspecting a problem with transparency. The plane widget is
transparent and we made changes to the way transparency is handled in
paraview. The implementation has some issues with some graphic
drivers. Are you compiling from source? I am tell you how you can
change one line to disable the new transparency implementation (depth
peeling).
