Good question. I think this is missing from the manual.
The order for the stress and strain components is
1-D: sigma_xx
2-D: sigma_xx, sigma_yy, sigma_xy
3-D: sigma_xx, sigma_yy, sigma_zz, sigma_xy, sigma_yz, sigma_xz

I don't think there is an easy way. ParaView has a scripting interface
but I have no experience using it. This is one reason why we want to add
HDF5 output. It is very easy to write simple Matlab or Python scripts to
process data in HDF5 files.
