[Paraview] no probe over line output with paraview scripting

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

What version of ParaView are you using? Here's my script with 3.9
(should work with 3.8 too).

Wavelet()
pl = PlotOverLine()
pl.Source.Point1 = [-10, -10, -10]
pl.Source.Point2 = [10, 10, 10]
CreateXYPlotView()
Show()
Render()
