[Paraview] problems assigning vector data in xdmf-file

Natalie,

"Type" in the Attribute should be "AttributeType" .... but that is not 
the problem.

For some reason it's not seeing the second dimension in
the HDF5 file (i.e. it sees it as rank=1 not rank=2) Notice
41525 / 3 = 13841.

Just for giggles try :

h5ls -vr c2d-T100-8r_00001.h5/Curvilinear/xm_ym

If it shows dims = 41525 instead of 41525 x 3 that's
the problem.
