[Paraview] new representations

2010-07-15 Thread Paul Edwards
Hi, I've added a representation to display feature edges but I can't get it to work for all datasets (it is missing for image and unstructured data). It seems that when another representation is added specifically for a type of data set (e.g. volume for unstructured, or slice and volume for
