Hi,

I got a question regarding the 'ParticlePathlines'-filter. What I want to do 
is, load particle time series follow its trajectories and colour the pathlines 
according to a certain variable... 
If I load my time series of vtk-files (see below), apply the 
'ParticlePathlines'-filter and skip through the time steps I can follow the 
particle trajectories. I may also choose the variable for the particles itself 
(TPART, see below). But for the pathlines the only options are 'Solid Color' 
and 'TrailId', so it's not possible to color the tracks acc. to for example 
TPART... Why that?
- Is sth wrong with my file?
- Do I need another paraview filter?

I am currently using the downloaded version 3.8.1.

And by the way, it is working properly using simple csv file series: after 
loading the series, applying TableToPoints & ParticlePathlines filter I may 
choose TPART for coloring the pathlines...

Any hints on that?

Thanks.
Michael
