[Paraview] SWKey: Bad Behavior W/ the PV's Contour Filter?

[Cory Quammen]

Samuel,

In the Contour filter, make sure you have the Compute Scalars option
on to be able to color your Contour by 'Max-Velocity-Mag'. I believe
the default was changed to not add this array as the array consists of
only the Contour value.

HTH,
Cory
