[Paraview] paraview3.3.0: Glyph filter ignores ScaleFactor in ascript?

[Sylvester Gerardson]

Concerning scalar bars:
http://www.paraview.org/pipermail/paraview/2008-January/006766.html

The opacity is a property of the representation, I expect. (repGlyph01 is
the example below)

Not only is the public documentation sparse on this subject, but the new
ParaView Guide as well. I am really disappointed in it, as contains hardly
any more information (if any at all) on python scripting than in the
Servermanager2.pdf file available in the Wiki.

Whoops, now I can see what was wrong... I should stop today.

arrows.ScaleFactor = 0.001
instead of
arrows.SetScaleFactor = 0.001

It works now, thanks Sylvester!

BTW. how do I color the glyphs according to their magnitude?
If you happen to have a complete example code with colorbars, opacity
setting, etc. that you could share I would be very happy. :) The public
documentation is a little bit terse (I do not have the manual).

Is it possible to force paraview to report something/raise an error if
one sets an attribute that is not a valid property name? The mistake
that I made is very difficult to detect for a paraview newbie...

cheers,
r.
