0013308: Plot Over Line Gives Different Results When Server Is Used
The plot over line filter appears to give different results depending if ParaView is connected to a server or not. To connect to a server, I run "mpirun -np 3 pvserver" followed by "paraview --server=hostname". To run paraview without a server, I simply run "paraview."

The plot over line filter correctly interpolates the solution without a server running. But if I use the filter while connected to a server, the interpolation takes much longer, about 4x, for a 100 pt line and the results are incorrect. Attached are images of the plot over line filter output on the same data set.
No tags attached.

This issue also occurs with the Probe Location filter when running in parallel.

What type of data source/reader are you trying to probe?

I was probing an Ensight data set. Single unstructured block composed of tets and prisms. Color contours on the rendered boundary surfaces were displayed correctly, which is how I initially noticed the issue.

Is it possible to share the data?

Unfortunately, it is not. I can generate a dummy set of data and try to reproduce the issue, but it will take a day or two before I can get it to you.
