[Paraview] using contour plot with xdmf input

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Stephanie,

This is indeed weird, looks like I can apply the Contour filter but it
doesn't produce any output. Did you say you were writing out VTK files
before and it used to work then? Can you also share the VTK file that
was working?

Thanks
Utkarsh
