[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] a new user with a simple question

[James Feng]

I tried rm paraview .ini  file and indeed got a fresh start with paraFoam
(by looking at the "Recent" tab under "Filter").   However, on one of
my computers (unlike the others) the plotOverLine window is still blank
(without anything visible, not even the coordinates).  I tried to put in a
"Chart Title" but it does not appear in the blank window (although colors
were assigned to data sets).  I tried "Save Data" and looked at the csv
file, which shows the data were there.  which might be due to that the data
did not get in there.   Could there be something else I can do to manually
get the data (over line) plotted in that window?   Thanks.
