[Paraview] Rendering bug in ParaView-CVS

[Michael Wild]

Hi all

In current CVS there seems to be a rendering problem with the  
crosshairs displayed at the rotation centre. Whenever the x-y plane is  
becoming close to normal to the view-vector (i.e. parallel to the  
camera-plane), these markers simply disappear. Funny thing is, they  
seem to be gradually "cut off" from left to right (or right to left,  
depending on which way x-y is tilted).

To illustrate the problem, I created a small animation which sweeps  
the camera from left to right: https://www.ifd.mavt.ethz.ch/people/wild/personal/files/sweep.mp4

- The first frame shows the partially cut-off crosshairs
- As the x-y plane becomes close to parallel with the view-plane, it  
completely disappears
- Towards the end, the crosshairs gradually appear again

I see this problem both on Mac OS X 10.5.7 and OpenSUSE 10.3.

Am I the only one with this issue?
