Recommended Settings

ParaView is susceptible for defective output visualizations in cases of using high order meshes or increasing the polynomial degree of supersampling. For this reason, it is recommended to edit several settings to get a correct high resolution visualization. At first the way of projection should be changed. Therefore, go to Edit > View Settings ... (Fig. 1.2) and activate use parallel projection (Fig. 1.3).

If the polynomial degree of supersampling is higher than 1 the mesh elements will be subdivided depending of the polynomial degree. As a result, it is not apparent anymore where the elements begin and where they end. Because of that the two filters "Extract Surfaces" and "Extract Edges" have to be applied which make the actual elements visible again in high resolution. They can be found under Filters > Alphabetical.
