Ethan, Just check "Map scalars" property on the "Properties panel after you've loaded the uint8_only dataset. The problem is that when ParaView sees uint8 data, it treats that as colors and doesn't use the color transfer function by default -- as that is generally what the users want.
Hope that helps. Utkarsh On Wed, May 14, 2014 at 9:39 AM, Utkarsh Ayachit <[email protected]> wrote: > A example file would be great.
