[Paraview] Displaying volume outside of mesh as solid

[Cory Quammen]

There isn't anything in ParaView to view empty volumes. At some stage, the
volume you are talking about needs to be represented by a grid or mesh for
it to be visualized with ParaView. If you can generate a volumetric mesh
outside of ParaView, then you could use all the visualization techniques in
ParaView that apply to volume meshes. As a post-processing application,
ParaView has essentially no built-in functions for generating volume meshes.

Hope that helps,
Cory
