Surfaces and overlapping lines are displaced.
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
Here is a bug from the mail group - Benjamin Schindler [bschindler@inf.ethz.ch]:
This is a known issue. This happens due to the coincident topology resolution techniques employed to rendering surfaces with overlapping lines correctly. We are working on a fix for this issue.

I have a very odd problem with paraview 3.6.1 (debug build directly from sources):
When displaying different objects, they are not properly laid into space, probably due to projection problems. One way to very easily see this is to display a line and then use the spreadsheet view to select a vertex of that line. The purple dot which highlights the point is then not on the vertex itself, but at some offset which varies depending on the viewing direction. I took a screenshot (and taking the screenshot itself changed the position of the highlight it seemed) to illustrate the problem.
This is extremely annoying as also datasets/lines are not properly laid into space so there is no way to tell how the two objects relate to each other. The same problem happens when selecting objects (see second screenshot)
Is this a known issue/is there already a fix for this?
