[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: Enabling parallel projection

[Scott, W Alan]

I had forgotten, but just got reminded by Utkarsh.  ParaView 4.2 has a really sweet feature - you can save any state in the Properties Panel as default.  You go it by group.

With regards to parallel projection, Properties Panel/ Advanced/ Camera Parallel Projection on.  You will notice this is under the sub header (or whatever you call it) of "View (Render View)" .  On the right side of this button (which allows Render View to be minimized/ maximized), are two buttons.  One is restore default settings, one is save settings as default.  Click on save settings as default.

p.s. - Utkarsh, I just tested this functionality and it worked just fine.

Cool, didn't realize that the search also find advanced settings. :)

Is there a way to set parallel project as default?

Up to 4.1 this could be done in Edit->View Settings->General, but that option somehow got lost in 4.2 (or at least I couldn't find it by using the search in Edit->Settings).
