Hi Roman, It turns out ParaView was not designed for this use case because of certain difficulties discussed here:
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17442 In your Python script, you could manually cash all the properties of the existing representations and restore them after loading the most recent state file. The functions reprs = GetRepresentations() repr = reprs.values()[0] props = repr.ListProperties() GetProperty(repr, props[0]) would be helpful for this.
