[Paraview] Colour by mulitple data sets

[Moreland, Kenneth]

Utkarsh,

Is it the case that if you color by a vector array comprising unsigned char, ParaView can color the surface directly using those colors (turn of Map Scalars)?  If that's the case, Tristan can create a filter (perhaps by using the Python Programmable Filter)) to create such an array.

Unfortunately, it's the former - I'm trying to color the same mesh with different
arrays.

Just to clarify, are you trying to color the same mesh with different
arrays or different meshes with different arrays? Is the former,
there's no way of doing it. If the latter, then the Object Inspector
allows one to change the color for the "active" mesh. You change
what's active by choose a different mesh in the pipeline browser.
