Selection does not show up in objects created in Python scripts
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
When you create and show a source object in a pipeline script, you cannot see any cells that get selected on it. To replicate, do the following.
- From within the ParaView GUI, open the Python shell.
- Type the following commands:
Sphere() Show() Render()
- Go back to the GUI and perform any selection. You will not see the selected points or cells.
If you go to the selection inspector, you will see that the selection is happening, but it just not being drawn on the sphere. I suspect the problem is that when the representation is created by the Python script, the properties describing how the selection is drawn are set such that it does not show up.
