Upon further inspection, it will draw color mapped scalars (of any type), but not if VTK is mapping scalar values before coloring (vtkMapper::InterpolateScalarsBeforeMapping).
In ParaView that setting is controlled by the Interpolate Scalars checkbox on the Display tab. David E DeMarle Kitware, Inc.
