[Paraview] Background in 3D mode

[David E DeMarle]

Cindy,

I can't remember which mode, tile or cave, doesn't support tile and
gradient background. But from what you and Joachim say it must be cave.

You should aim for tile mode then. You can enforce and thus correct the
ordering problem you see  with tile mode with your mpirun command and the
your cave.pvx file. Can you share your
/opt/software/ParaView/PVresources/wall_config.pvx? So I can suggest a fix?

thanks
