[Paraview] Export X3D Files via Python >version 3.8

[Andrea Beck]

Thanks a lot, Sebastian!
That did the trick. The only thing I had change was the line marked 
below, or I got the error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<string>", line 5, in <module>
   File 
"/home/ParaView-3.14.1-Linux-64bit/lib/paraview-3.14/site-packages/paraview/simple.py", 
line 249, in Show
     raise RuntimeError, "Could not create a representation object for 
proxy %s" % proxy.GetXMLLabel()
RuntimeError: Could not create a representation object for proxy RenderView

Otherwise, it worked fine. Thank you very much. BTW, is there a good 
reference for the API somewhere? All the stuff I could find online was 
either outdated or incomplete.

All the best,
Andrea
