See Utkarsh’s message for an example [Scale Scalar Value in Animation - #6 by reox](https://discourse.paraview.org/t/scale-scalar-value-in-animation/11540/6)

This uses a “Python” animation track where you have access to all the filters and camera as well. In ParaView 5.12, you can add a “Python” animation track in the Time Manager (the Animation View is gone).
