[Paraview] copy-paste (or ,> clone/dublicate)

[Felipe Bordeu Weldt]

the other way around is to create a custom filter to group all your filter into one and expose only the desired properties.

But since I then have different variable names, it does again not work for the Isocontours... PlotOnIntersectionCurves however seems to be doing ok.
