[Paraview] loading multiple state-files without hiding and resetting already loaded objects

[Grothausmann, Roman Dr.]

Dear mailing list members,


It seems that PV (and paraview.simple.LoadState) by default hides already loaded 
objects (and resets e.g. their coloring) when another state-file is loaded.
Is there a way to load multiple state-files after one another without hiding and 
resetting already existent objects? I.e. a way to concatenate multiple 
state-files and leave their objects in the state as they got loaded (e.g. 
colored, hidden/visible)?
I do understand that loading a new state-file will reset the camera, but not the 
rest.
Here's my initial attempt to achieve this with pvpython:

Any help or hints are very much appreciated
Roman
