I saw this old mail [https://www.paraview.org/pipermail/paraview/2016-November/038661.html#:~:text=In%20the%20past%2C%20I%20have,for%20information%20about%20ParaView%20plugins](https://www.paraview.org/pipermail/paraview/2016-November/038661.html#:~:text=In%20the%20past%2C%20I%20have,for%20information%20about%20ParaView%20plugins) (but the how to link is dead)

and this [post](https://discourse.paraview.org/t/smooth-vtkimagedata-structured-data-in-paraview/14017/5) from you when I was looking for how to do it.
