Hi Mark, The adaptor is meant to convert a simulation code's data structures into something that derives from vtkDataObject. So the adaptor could have a RAW binary file passed in and produce a vtkImageData for your case. As far as the Catalyst Python script is concerned, all it is expecting at for the source is a vtkImageData in your example. It may be that the bounding box of the data coming in from the RAW file is different than the vtkImageData you load in the second time. I'd suggest checking that.
Something else you could try is the "fit to screen" option when outputting screenshots from Catalyst. That should behave similarly to the fit to screen option in the GUI. Let me know if this isn't clear since I'm not sure I answered your question.
