[Paraview] [paraview] using with python to read file VTK in 3.7 and to show a volume representation

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Jona,

Look at the attached script.
For volume rendering you need to specify the scalar to use for volume
rendering as well as the color lookup table as well as the scalar opacity
function. The attached script illustrates how to do the same.
