[Paraview] SOLVED: Another paraview x3d export question: pale pale colors output -- how do I hack the x3d exporter?

[Cook, Rich]

Cool, now I have to figure out how to get rid of the cracks in my images and I'll be all set.

Ah! I think the problem boils down to X3D exporter not exporting cell-data correctly. I've reported a bug: http://paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=14423

Thanks for figuring this out :).

It seems as though in the "bad x3d export" case with garbled colors, I had selected the "pressure as zones" coloring method:

This does not play well with point data apparently.  Here is what I get in blender (in paraview it looks fine):

When I changed this to "color by pressure as nodes":

The export looks coherent and properly colored in blender:

Although I know I should not color nodal data by zones for optimal behavior, if the GUI is going to let me do this, I would argue that all hell should not break loose.  :-)

Anyhow, workaround found, problem solved, etc.
Thanks!

"interpolate colors before mapping" is turned on for all objects.
Hmm -- I just got a good image -- hold on while I figure out what I did.  I went into the advanced settings and changed a couple things.  Let's see if I can figure out when it works and when it doesn't.

I don't see any such option.  I'm attaching a screen shot of all the contour properties.  I also don't see that in the Preferences anywhere.

Rich, the properties panels provides a "search box" on the top of the
panel. It's generally easy to simply use that to find the properties.
The panel has a "advanced" view and a "default" view and hence not all
available properties are shown in the panel. However, if you search,
all properties are searched irrespective of whether the panel is in
advanced or simple view. So just type  "interpolate " in the "Search"
box and you'll see the attached image:

For more details on the design on the properties panel, here's a post:

I tried to reproduce the issue using a wavelet source instead, but my
blender skills are limited and I can't seem to get any color rendered.
I'll wait till I get your response about what happens for you with the
simple sphere case to continue.
