[Paraview] Some tests and questions about PV 3.10.0-RC1

[Robert Maynard]

Hi Richard,

In the 3.10 we have introduced the ability to load multiple files when using
the ctrl and shift keys. If you want to load a file series you need to
select the file series root node, not each item in the series. Doing so will
make ParaView load each file individually.

You can find a nice guide to loading files in the user guide:
