[Paraview] Rendering bug in ParaView-CVS

[Dominik Szczerba]

Can you post your dataset for a test?

I have observed a similar problems with whole actors disappearing (the 
same way, as if gradually cut by something) for very small datasets. I 
suspect this may have to do with single precision accuracy somewhere.
