  1. Apply the "Slice" filter, along the direction of your original line.
  2. Apply a second "Slice" filter, applied to the first one, along the location of the intended line.
  3. You should now have the same line you originally intended, but with some extra information that the "Plot over line" doesn't give you, namely the "Cell Data". This is because "Plot over line" does interpolation into point data.
  4. Now, apply the filter "Plot data" to the second slice.
  5. In the... I think it's the "Display" tab (writing from memory here ), you can choose to plot the cell data, instead of the point data.
And that should be the solution for your question!

Best regards,
Bruno
