Hi!

Is it possible to capture trough ParaView the rendered image of the Win32OpenGL(highlighted in the image below) windows created when using a .PVX file?

 ![THIS%20BUFFER](https://discourse.paraview.org/uploads/default/original/2X/e/e2f318795e3297fe5581e451e4f83c156622a444.jpeg)

Their buffers do not come together when [capturing the buffer of the RenderView](https://blog.kitware.com/be-careful-what-you-grab/)

Any material on how to achieve this would be helpful!

pvx used:

```
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<pvx>
  <Process Type="server">
   <EyeSeparation Value="0.02"/>
	<Machine Name="USER043"
		Environment="DISPLAY=:0"
		Geometry="500x500+300+300"
		LowerLeft=" -1 -1 -1"  
		LowerRight=" 1 -1 -1"  
		UpperRight=" 1 1 -1"/>
  </Process>
</pvx>
```

I am afraid, not. This is not supported currently. Feel free to report and issue. In ParaVIew `master`, there is a mechanism that is used by the testing framework to capture CAVE or tile display results and it may be possible to use that or expose it to users in a more agreeable fashion.
