Hi, I am new to ParaView and not entirely new to Python. I have been trying to create Python scripts to automate some animations with volume rendering that I have been working on.
I have found it very difficult to find out how to do various things from Python that are easily accessible from the main ParaView GUI. I haven't been able to find detailed documentation, except for the "ParaView Scripting with Python" document, and by looking at the properties of the Python modules using dir, help, etc, it is very hard to find out how some things are done and I have to admit that I am a bit lost. I was wondering if a more comprehensive guide than this document and the 'Python Recipes' page exists, or at least some guidelines on how to find out how things are done from the servermanager module. Some things I would like to do is for example to load a preset for the opacity function for volume rendering that I have created and saved using the GUI, to show/hide axes and the rotation center when rendering, etc. Also, I have read about some bugs being fixed (for example showing/hiding the center of the axes). In order to have those fixes, can I get an updated Python module and how? I am currently using Paraview 3.6.1., but should soon upgrade to 3.8.0.
