[Paraview] Paraview python - loop to run through multiple files

[Cory Quammen]

Rebekah,

I think you want to write

LoadState("/home/sophy/Desktop/%s.pvsm" % x)

to properly substitute your filename held in x into the path.

Also, you may want to clear out the loaded state after saving the
image, which you can do by calling

Disconnect()
Connect()

HTH,
Cory
