This is the error that I get:

**Loguru caught a signal: SIGSEGV  
( 35.368s) [paraview] :0 FATL| Signal: SIGSEGV  
Segmentation fault (core dumped)**

The error seems to occur at random times. Sometimes immediately after I select interactive cells on option, sometimes after clicking on 2-3 points and sometimes after I select plot over time and click apply. Paraview works fine without interactive cells on.

Is that the complete error message, or is there more? If there is more, could you please provide that as it may help track this issue down.

Does it happen only when you open the file you shared ?

No. It happens whenever I use interactive cells on option irrespective of the file.
