[Paraview] Line plot with cell data: PlotOverLine ?

The plot over line filter only interpolates at the specified points so it
will always have point data output for the plot. You can try using two
slice planes that intersect at the location of the line and then maybe some
cut filters to get rid of the rest of the line that's not wanted. I'm not
sure of the details of how to turn this into a plot view in paraview with
discontinuous values. If you figure that step out, please share it since I
was trying to do similar things but didn't get to figuring out the last
step in the process.

Regards,
Andy
