[Paraview] Creating clips for multiple data sets

[Lev Karatun]

Hi David,

I actually already saw this advice on the mailing list. The first approach
doesn't work in my case because I want to be able to see the results of
each individual data sets clipped, which seems to be impossible which this
approach (unless I'm doing something wrong).

Approach 2 is not much faster or easier than creating the clips manually.

Best regards,
Lev Karatun.
