[Paraview] pvbatch + LoadState('..') +XDMF = empty image

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Here's an updated script:
=================
from paraview.simple import *

# reload state
servermanager.LoadState('/tmp/state.pvsm')

view = GetRenderViews()[0]

## render png
view.ResetCamera()
view.StillRender()
view.WriteImage( "/tmp/Test1.png", "vtkPNGWriter" )
==================


The problem was that your script was creating a new view, and not
using the view created by the state file.
