Ron,
Three answers.

* My user is only trying to use rainbow on specific runs, not as the default 
color map for all time.
* I already gave that lecture to the user.  I always ask what are your goals?  
To create informative accurate simulations that don't give color blind folks 
fits, or eye candy?   For me (making cool movies), it's eye candy.  For my 
users (analysts trying to do real work), it's accurate information.
* My goal is to support my user.  If said user wants rainbow, I tell them how 
to do rainbow.  :-)

Thanks for the reminder,

Alan

Are you sure that is a wise thing to do in the first place, at least the bit 
about making "rainbow" the default?
See e.g.:

Subject: [Paraview] Trace recorder and presets (color table)

I have a user that needs to change the ParaView preset from default (cool to 
warm) to another ParaView preset (Blue to Red Rainbow).  He wants to do this in 
a python trace.  So, he used the trace recorder to record his steps.  
Unfortunately, changing presets is not recorded with the trace recorder.

I have written this issue up as bug number 
http://www.paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=15116, but need to give the user the 
code that would have/ should have been produced.  Does anyone have the python 
code that changes presets?

Thanks all!

Alan
