[Paraview] Auto Apply after choosing filters - fatal

[Christian Werner]

Hello!

I remember there was a discussion about the Apply button. Somebody 
mentioned it would be nice if a filter is automatically applied after a 
short moment when selected. I don't know how this happened but I have 
this behaviour now with my current cvs version. This is fatal, because 
like that, I cannot use some filters anymore on some of my data (e.g. 
Threshold, it eats my memory and cpu power away with it's standard 
settings, effectively freezing my PC for a long time until it crashes).

It seems that this functionality has to be enabled somehow and that I 
did that without knowing. At least I cannot remember installing a more 
recent cvs version for many days, and this behaviour is new. The actual 
version which I now installed also goes with auto-apply.

Despite that, this auto apply is really a very good idea. Maybe one 
could provide a <hint> in the appropriate xml that tells if this filter 
can safely be auto executed. But this is definetly not the case for all 
filters!

Can anyone tell me how to disable this?


Best regards,
Christian
