[Paraview] Integrate Variables divide cell data by volume has no effect?

[Andy Bauer]

The DivideCellDataByVolume only operates on cell data and you're
integrating a point data array so it won't work the way you're expecting it
to. You can use the point data to cell data filter and then try using the
integrate variable filter to see if that gives the result that you want.
