[Paraview] No interpolation of colors possible (table-to-points result)

[Sven Boese]

  Hi,

I'm quite new to Paraview and have an urgent problem. I employed the 
help that was/is available to me - meaning 
http://paraview.org/OnlineHelpCurrent/ - but couldn't solve the problem 
until now. Actually, I don't consider my problem to be really 
complicated, it might well be that the solution is one mouse-click away.

APPROACH
-->  a dataset (CSV-file) of a three dimensional tomography was imported 
into Paraview
-->  'table to points'-filter was performed, using the x-,y- and 
z-values (latter are negative) of my dataset (first three columns)
-->  'colour by...': the fourth data column with the resistivity values 
was chosen
-|-> finally I wanted the colors to be interpolated between the points.


PROBLEM: I can't perform the color interpolation.

In the wiki there's a small picture showing the color section with the 
option 'color by...'. Above this dropdown-list you can see 'interpolate 
colors"
being activated.

In my case, there is no such thing, instead the option ist named 
'interpolate scalars'. In addition to that, in my display there's a 
second (smaller and empty) dropdown-list next to 'color by...' and an 
option called 'apply texture: none' (grey).


Many thanks in advance if you can help me! (unfortunately I can only 
answer tomorrow and then not until next monday, 26th July)
