[Paraview] Creating a PV 3 Plugin - qrc File

[clinton at elemtech.com]

You have have multiple Qt widgets connected to one server manager property.
If you want the connection made between your widgets and the server manager 
automatically, then suffix the Qt widget names with _0, _1, _2 for which 
index of the property they are connected with.  If you're going to set/get 
the values yourself, then you can name them another way.

Or if you want to make separate server manager properties, and have one Qt 
widget for each, you'll have to have corresponding properties on your filter.
