that is indeed annoying, and would be very nice to be able to save the
opacity table. A work around is use a state file. The opacity tables
will be saved/restored. note: 4.2 has a bug in state file loading re:
time. depending on your scenario you may need to use 4.1.

thanks for the attention! I should also point out that i have tried the import/export
options on the color table editing feature- opacity is not preserved. i.e. when i export
a table to an xml file, the opacities all revert to 1.0, and when i import an xml file,
any ' o="x.xx" ' value is ignored, and whatever opacity function in the editor
from previous work is applied instead.
cheers-

Subject: Re: [Paraview] volume color transfer table.
To the best of my knowledge, the current volume mappers in
VTK/ParaView need to use a color/opacity transfer functions. Aashish,
is that changing with the new volume rendering code?

hi- i have seen this question on various blogs, but not the answer in a
usable form for me...
i provide project data to paraview via vtk legacy files in ascii. the
default color mapping functions provided by paraview do not decouple opacity
from color, so i am providing my own look_up table of RGBa values organized
in such a way that i can apply different opacities to the same color, and
different colors to the same opacity. it works for surface rendering, but
not for volume rendering- i.e. when choosing the volume option, the
rendering reverts back to one of the default tables. how do i apply my
scalar color table in the vtk file to volumes?
i could laboriously enter 120x4 values into the paraview mapping editor, but
that seems silly...
thank you!
and as i am new to paraview and this list mail option, feel free to refer me
to an old post.
