[Paraview] Data selection with tiled-display

[Moreland, Kenneth]

Utkarsh,

Is it a known bug to crash the server?  I tried a tiled display locally on my desktop, and although the selection did not work in that it selected the wrong elements, the rest of the system still behaved correctly afterwards.  Can you replicate the crash of pvserver?

That is correct. Selection on tile-displays isn't supported yet.
