[Paraview] Wireframe vs Surface representation

[Moreland, Kenneth]

I don't know if I totally understand what the question is (an image might help), but it sounds like parts of the wireframe object are coincident to the surface object (that is, they occupy the same space).  If so, chances are you are getting z-fighting; you probably see parts of the wireframe hidden and parts showing through.

There is no easy answer to this problem.  If you are only going to be viewing the object from a certain direction, you can use a transform to shift the wireframe slightly away from the viewer (or equivalently shift the surface toward the viewer).

Hi,

I want to superpose two files, one with a wireframe representation and
the other with a surface rep. I want the wireframe to be in the
background and use the surface to cover up part of the wireframe. But
the wireframe always seems to show up. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Karthik
