[Paraview] 3.8 RC1 regression in line chart ?

[Scott, W Alan]

Richard,
1) This seems to work fine on the trunk from a few days ago.

3) Good catch - this is a bug.  I wrote up a bug report, bug number 10597.

Subject: [Paraview] 3.8 RC1 regression in line chart ?

Hello, here is me again.

I have found some kind of regression with the line charts (XY plots) in PV 3.8 RC1:
First, loading a very simple csv file with three columns (named P, R and T), then using filter "PlotData":

1. the XY windows comes with the top "VARIABLE" box unchecked and all my variables (P, V, T) boxes checked in the Line Series panel of the Display tab, but the XY window remains empty until I check the top "VARIABLE" box. The default X axis is the Row ID. OK.

2. Now I want to use one of my three data arrays as the X axis: I select the radio-button and the first variable P is selected by default on the list-box. OK, this is the variable I want on the X axis, but I get many error messages because "No X column is set (index 0)". I have to select another X axis variable, then to come again on the P variable. No more error, but the X axis remains scaled with the Row ID values! I have to uncheck a variable in the line series panel and to check it again to obtain the correct P values on the X axis. Finally I get my three curves and I can change the X axis variable as I want.

3. All variables are scaled by default with the bottom-left axis system and I want to scale one of the variables on the right axis. I select one variable in the Line series panel and I try to change the default bottom-left Chart Axes for bottom-right or top-right axis system. 
Nothing happens: the top and right axis don't appear and all variables remain scaled on the bottom-left axis system. I can change some attributes of the variable (Line thickness, Line Style, Marker), but not the Chart Axes, although it was possible to change the Chart Axes with PV 3.6.2.

I attach the very small csv file that I used for my tests.

Regards.

Richard
