State files saved on mac have problems when reloaded.
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
A couple of students have reported problems with state files not being able to be opened again without crashing, or having changed values for some of the filter parameters. Both reports have come from students using the Mac version of Paraview 4.1.
This is a real problem because saving state is the way to work around crashes.
The students have not reported the problem on Windows (I've asked them to report if it does happen).
One instance of this involved a threshold filter's settings changing (and becoming uneditable when reloaded). Another involved crashing on reload.
They were able to save and load on 3.98 under Windows in one of the crash cases.
I've asked for a corrupt state file to attach to this ticket.
