[Paraview] ParaView Digest, Vol 94, Issue 45

Thu Feb 16 15:31:46 EST 2012

I downloaded and built ParaView 3.12.0 from source to my Window vista
(32bit) and Windows7 (64bit). When I try selecting more than one point
from     a point cloud by holding the control key and using mouse to select
I get     the output message below with only the new point selected
(without the     previous point selected).
Output Message: Generic Warning: In
C:\ParaView\ParaViewCore\ServerManager\vtkSMPropertyHelper.cxx, line 399
Call not supported for the current property type.
Please, can someone help me out.
Cheers.
