Summary0008876: Color scale editor setting don't persist - even across a single run
Description* ParaView local server. Trunk.
* Open disk_out_ref.exo. All variables on.
* Color by temp.
* Open Color Scalar Editor. Choose Preset.

Bug number 1: the default is CEILab Blue to Red. Please make it be whatever is currently active. (This is minor, no biggie if it isn't fixed.)

* Choose Black body radiation. OK.
For fire, this is actually not correct. So, you want to move the buttons and add more.
* Move the two visible buttons to the top of the Color Scale Editor. Make Default. Close.

Bug number 2: Make default doesn't do anything. Can we either get it to work, or remove it?

* Add a clip plane. Color by temp. Volume render.
* Open the color editor.

Bug number 3: Note that the color scale buttons are not where they were.

* Move these buttons where we wanted them - to the top of the edit window.
* Close

(Cool picture, isn't it? By the way, it looks nicer with a scale of about 5.)

* Delete the clip.
* Open the color editor.

Bug number 4: Note that we now have double buttons at the top. This should not have happened.

This is really, really obnoxious for folks creating fire movies.

OK, I get it. Bug number 2 actually saves between sessions. Would "Make default between sessions" be too verbose to put on the button?

Note to developer: The problem here is the fact that opacity function is kept independent of the color transfer function and also the fact that opacity function is not centralized as the color transfer function. Hence, the opacity function needs to be adjusted every time.

Utkarsh is correct - I was trying to say that the opacity doesn't persist. Sorry for being unclear.

The fix is to also create opacity function in pqLookupTableManager, just like the lookuptable, and it can also be saved with settings.

Much, much, much better.

Tested local server.
