[Paraview] plotting vector contours (not just the magnitude)

[Andy Bauer]

If I understand correctly what you want, you can use the spreadsheet view
to look at the vector component values.  If you want to contour the sum of
the vector components, use the calculator filter to do the sum and then you
can contour a scalar value.
