[Paraview] Changes to color bar placement and visibility

[M P]

Hi Utkarsh,
regarding colormaps I would certainly love if for colormaps that include
transparency there could be a checker texture displayed behind the
transparent colormap. That would certainly improve the readability of the
the colormap for volumerendering.
Now the behavior  is a little bit strange, the colormap turns transparent
(but witout the opaque checker texture) when the "Enable Opacity Mapping
for Surfaces" is turned on. But these two different things and should not
be connected, what if need transparent colormap for volumerendering but
still want opaque surfaces with this colormap?

Thank you,

Martin
