Summary0008304: Objects created in Python do not have eyeball until Show or Hide called
DescriptionWhen you create a pipeline object in the Python interpreter of the ParaView GUI, you do not get an eyeball next to the object until Show or Hide is called on the object. When creating a chain of filters, intermediate results are often not shown. Thus, there may be pipeline objects without eyeballs, and it is awkward to get them to show up.

Berk, probably you just need to call CreateOutputPorts() and then the GUI will start showing the eye balls.

Reminder sent to: Utkarsh Ayachit

You mean I need to create a representation right? The eye balls are tied to the representation.
I can do that but that causes the source/filter to execute as soon as it is created, which is bad. Maybe we need to go all the way and totally emulate creating a filter from the menu? I mean maybe the Apply button should become green and you should press it or call Apply() from Python which would cause:
* Eyeball to show up
* Filter to execute
* View to render

We need to refactor this sort of stuff into a server manager business logic thing-a-magick that is shared by Python and Qt. I suggest postponing these changes until after then.
