'Data source' in post-processing doesn't respect 'Visibility -> Force Component'

I noticed that setting the option

Post processing options -> Aspect -> Data Source

to a different view only uses the default Visibility. E.g. for a six component field (a stress tensor), the Von Mises scalar is used as colour. This is a often utilized as a way of showing stresses on a deformed structure.

When looking at the undeformed stress field view, the tab

Post processing options -> Visibility -> Force Scalar

allows one to select components of the tensor (e.g. only normal stress sigma_x). The deformed view doesn't allow this selection, as far as I can tell.

It would be best if the visibility settings of the tensor field are respected also in the 'deformed view'. Furthermore, the settings in View[i].CustomMax and View[i].CustomMin should be respected.

Steps to reproduce: As an example, I'm attaching two files. One holds the deformation information and the other one the stress tensor

  1. Set View[0] -> Visibility -> Force Scalar and View[0] - > General -> Range mode to Custom. Hit the Min, Max button.
  2. remember how the picture changed from Von Mises to sigma_x
  3. turn off the visibility of View[0]
  4. Set View[1] -> Aspect -> Data Source to View[0] (the Von Mises data of View[0] is shown).

Changes in View[0] -> Visibility -> Force Component and changes in View[0].CustomMin/Max are not affecting the current View[1].

I think this would be the expected behaviour. Thanks for your attention.
