[Paraview] automatically export image from state

[Martin Genet]

Many thanks for your help, Utkarsh.

I have tried your solution, but I get "TypeError: 'RenderView' object does not support indexing".

However, thanks to your comment I moved to 3.12 (I was running 3.10), and now everything works fine.

A thousand thanks!

Martin
