<div>Thanks David,</div><div><br></div>I have instead downloaded paraview onto a virtual machine and got the Manta view working okay. I have a couple of follow up questions;<div><br><div>(i) How can I change the lighting settings for the Manta view? .The default headlight is leading to some strange looking shadows.</div><div>(ii) I have set a material to transparent (and reduced its opacity) but it doesn't appear to be refracting anything behind it, is there something else I need to change? (i.e. it looks like it has a refractive index of 1)</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Dan</div><div><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div>> From: dave.demarle@kitware.com<br>> Date: Wed, 8 Feb 2012 07:45:43 -0500<br>> Subject: Re: [vtkusers] Manta & Paraview<br>> To: dbpvusrlist@hotmail.co.uk<br>> CC: vtkusers@vtk.org; manta@sci.utah.edu<br>> <br>> We don't include the manta plugin on Microsoft Windows because Manta<br>> itself (at least the backdated version that we use) doesn't build<br>> there.<br>> More recent versions of Manta build there, but we found problems with<br>> it (in all platforms) when last we tried to upgrade.<br>> <br>> David E DeMarle<br>> Kitware, Inc.<br>> R&D Engineer<br>> 21 Corporate Drive<br>> Clifton Park, NY 12065-8662<br>> Phone: 518-881-4909<br>> <br>> <br>> <br>> On Wed, Feb 8, 2012 at 7:14 AM, Dan Barker <dbpvusrlist@hotmail.co.uk> wrote:<br>> > Hi All,<br>> ><br>> > I'm trying to run Paraview and use the Manta view.
