[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] proper formatting of 2D data

[Scott, W Alan]

Robert,
I am pretty sure that is a bug.  Mind writing up a bug report?  Also, your description and example file are great.  Be sure to include them in the bug.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] proper formatting of 2D data

Hi,

I tried to visualize 2D structured point data when I observed a strange behavior. If the spacing in Y direction is negative, the data is flipped upside-down in 'Slice' representation mode but shown properly as a 'Surface' representation. Tried in v. 4.0.1 and 4.2rc1 on Linux 64 bit. 
Here is a small VTK file to test:

--8<--
# vtk DataFile Version 2.0
testing
ASCII
DATASET STRUCTURED_POINTS
DIMENSIONS 3 4 1
ORIGIN 0.0 0.0 0.0
SPACING 0.5 -0.75 1.0
POINT_DATA 12
SCALARS test float
LOOKUP_TABLE default
0.0
1.0
2.0
1.0
2.0
3.0
2.0
3.0
4.0
3.0
4.0
5.0
-->8--

I am wondering if I missed something when formatting the file or if you have any ideas how to avoid this behavior?
Thanks,
Robert
