I would like have a feature converting and saving line plots generated in ParaView to .tex? I want to have my plots in a tex document and want them to look very consistent with the document.

Thanks!

Don’t you think using a general approach of generating tex plots from csv is more appropriate?

That could be also appropriate, however it is also nice to be able to previously determine color settings from the line chart view for example first and then convert to tex and not have to edit it in tex later.
