[Paraview] slice as background image?

Hi,

from a 3D dataset, I need to view a slice and streamlines from a line source lying in the slice plane. The problem is that the slice and the streamlines are overlapping, and part of the streamlines are covered by the slice. I cannot change the origins of slice or streamlines in order to move them slightly forward or backward, because that would make me lose details of what I want to see. When I use the transform filter to translate the slice, I get a mismatch due to the perspective rendering.
What I would like to do is just to put the slice in the background and the streamlines in the foreground. Is there a way to do that apart from saving the slice as image and use that as background image?

Thank you for a helpful hint,

Matthias
