Summary0002660: unclear data->image conversion
DescriptionSee the vtkusers thread:

[vtkusers] Writing a JPEG from vtkActor

The problem is VTK crashing on ShiftScale operation on files
containing many vector/scalar data. Paraview reads the file OK, VTK CVS
15DEC05 crashes (segfault). But if I break the multi file into one scalar per file the
problem is not there anymore.

I figured out for sure that ShiftScale is innocent. It is the multiple instances of VECTORS and SCALARS in the input files. The documentation is not clear on this point at all, see the other thread:

[confusion about scalars/vectors and field data]

Using exclusively field data eliminates the problem, however, appearently it's a trap.
