Summary0015070: Lighting bug
DescriptionThis is a lighting bug that is really hard to replicate, and I am not even sure this is the main one. Anyway, it needs to be fixed. When you use ParaView, all of a sudden colors go bad. The only way to correct this is to close ParaView, or turn on an additional headlight.

* Linux, 4.2.0, local server. No .config files (I deleted them).
* Open can.exo. All vars on. Apply.
* Color by ACCL. Notice the colors of the plate bottom on screen.
* Open the color editor. Click "Interpret Values as Categories", turning it on. Now, click "Interpret Values as Categories" once more, turning it off.

<<Bug>> The plate will now have a very dark, red and black appearance. This needs to be corrected.

Work around is to "modify" the reader, e.g change array selection. The bug it not a lighting bug, but the fact the color mapping is not happening again once the "interpret values as colors" is unchecked.
