[Paraview] LIC surface Color by variable lost on Screenshot with offscreen rendering

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Richard,

The problem is indeed due to  offscreen rendering. I've added a bug
(http://paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=11847). Until this is resolved,
the work-around would be to uncheck "Use offscreen rendering for
screenshots" in Edit | settings dialog (Render View page).
