[Paraview] Determining distance information from an image in Paraview

[David E DeMarle]

For measuring, see Source->Ruler.

For camera alignment, see the View->Toolbars->Camera Controls for the
popular shortcuts. For more control see the Adjust Camera dialog box which
you can get to by hitting the icon of a camera with a magnifying glass in
the view's menu bar.
