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

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Is that data shareable? Can you send it to  me? I can see if there's
something that could be done. If you can send me the data in VTK
format so I don't need to your reader code and I think that should
work too.
