[Paraview] Changing Chart Series Visibilities from Python

[Greg Schussman]

Hi, Pat.

In the Pipeline Browser, PlotData1 is visible (non-greyed out eye next 
to it), and selected (white text on blue background).  There's a blue 
border around the displayed chart (and not around the 3d view next to it).

When I say

   rep.Visibility = 0
   Render()

the plot window goes all white, and

   rep.Visibilty = 1
   Render()

brings the plot back.

I'm guessing that means rep refers to the correct thing.

How is the ParaView GUI able to see something that I can't?  Or is it 
just that ParaView does most of it's work directly in C++?

Thanks for your help.

Greg
