[Paraview] selected points change when clip plane changes

[Zenker, Dr. Matthias]

Hi David,

thank you for the hint, but it doesn't seem to do what I want.
My workflow was:
1. Display 3D geometry, color by temperature
2. Apply clip filter
3. Select some points
4. Apply extract selection filter
5. Change position of plane of clip filter
Result: After step 5, the points are at totally different locations.
Does ParaView renumber the points when the clip filter is applied? IMHO it shouldn't...

Apply the extract selection filter.
