[Paraview] Python state trace w/glyphs not working

[Eric E. Monson]

Thanks a lot for looking into it and finding a fix so quickly, Pat!

I need to set up some offline animations for some of my users and it's so much easier now that all the python trace stuff is in place -- trace it, add an AnimateReader at the end and then all I have to worry about is data file names. (Well, in practice I do a little clean-up of the trace, but it's so much easier than having to do it from scratch in python -- get to set up the vis in PV and then generate similar animations in batch for other simulation runs. Nice.)

Talk to you later,
-Eric

Stream tracer, probe location are other examples I can find.  Turns out it was an easy fix, I'll push the change tomorrow:
