[Paraview] Tensor variables in ExodusII database

When writing a symmetric tensor to an ExodusII database, the following link indicates that ParaView will interpret the variable as a symmetric tensor if it is written to the file as var_xx, var_yy, var_zz, var_xy, var_xz, var_yz, where var is the variable name

http://www.paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=5979

However, when I write symmetric tensors to the database with the above convention, ParaView interprets them as 6 independent scalars.  Is there a more updated method of naming symmetric tensors in ExodusII database files so that ParaView will interpret them correctly?

Cheers,
