[Paraview] Large Data, local server

[Scott, W Alan]

Hi all,

Thought I would pass a success story around.  I just watched a user open a 102 
million cell dataset, with two thousand files per timestep, using 58 Gig of 
memory, on a standalone version of ParaView.   Slow, but it all held together.

ParaView rocks.

Alan

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Possible bug (Actually 2)

[Scott, W Alan]

Hi Tim,
I don’t know about your first question, but with regarts to a cylindrical 
slice, this has been fixed in the developers tree (Master).  This will appear 
fixed in the 5.5.0 release, scheduled for this coming spring.  If you want to 
try it out, go to paraview.org, then Downloads, then Nightly.

There are numerous bugs on this, but the one I just found and resolved is here:

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Possible bug (Actually 2)

I have a problem with unstructured CFD datasets  using the Ensight format.  The 
following illustrates the problem.  I make a slice at a certain value of y and 
look at velocity vectors.  Everything is good.  I use calculator to makea 
dependent variable from CoordY and contour at the same y value.   These 2 
surfaces are identical and shading by any variable yields identical results.   
If I put velocity vectors on the  constant y contour surface, they are wrong.  
This procedure works as expected with   plot3d structured datasets.  The other 
thing I’ve noticed, when using a cylindrical slice,  it always uses the y axis. 
 Setting X or Z anything else has no effect. This happens on all my datasets.   
I’m using my own compile of Version 5.4.1 on a mac.  Any ideas, comments or 
suggestions?
Thanks
Tim

Hi guys.

My Paraview 5.4 is constantly crashing when I try to load many (~20) TIFF files 
as a single time varying dataset.

I am on MAC OS 10.12.

Any clue why?

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: OpenGL Vendor

[Scott, W Alan]

Thanks all!  

To add to what Ken said, you can't find the OpenGL library from pvserver.  You 
need to cd into the lib/paraview-*.* directory, and do an ldd on 
libvtkRenderingOpenGL2-pv5.4.so.  This tells you where libOSMesa.so is located.

[Paraview] OpenGL Vendor

[Scott, W Alan]

With a remote server running on a cluster, what does the Help/ About/ 
Connection Information/ OpenGL Version string mean?  Where is this found?  
Isn't this the version of OpenGL compiled into the pvserver?  What is the name 
of this library, and any idea how I can find what is being used?

I have a situation where my builds show OpenGL version 3.3 (and can open a 
specific dataset), and a user's shows 2.1 (and he cannot open a specific 
dataset).

Thanks all,

Alan

The best way I can think of is to then use the threshold filter to isolate each 
of the pieces and then use the cell size filter on each piece. This would be 
fairly easy to automate in a Python script to just print out the values.
Alternatively, I don't see a reason why the Connectivity filter couldn't have 
an option added to output a field data array with the summed sizes of each 
piece. Since Cory just made the connectivity filter work correctly in parallel 
it would surprise me that he may be familiar enough with the code to do the

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Segfault with 'Hover Cells' over 3d glyphs

[Scott, W Alan]

I believe that the warnings you are seeing is new in the developers tree (i.e., 
the Alpha that was released for SC), and is being looked at here:  
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17633#note_352250.  If they 
don’t go away, we will have to fix them.

The main crash is real.  I replicated it here: 
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17882.

Thanks for reporting.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Segfault with 'Hover Cells' over 3d glyphs

Greetings,

I'm using the SC17 preview of 5.5 of ParaView. I first noticed this error with 
my own dataset but it appears with the simple test.csv I've included. To 
reproduce the segfault:

Load the attached (or presumably any) CSV points file.
Run the TableToPoints filter.
Assign the X/Y/Z column dropdowns to the x coord/y coord/z coord values.
Hit Apply
Hit the 'Hover Cells On' button in the 3d display and mouse over a point to 
confirm it works.
In the 'Representation' drop down box select "3D Glyphs".
In the 'Glyph Type' drop down box select "Box" (I wasn't able to reproduce the 
error with arrows)
Hover over one of the resulting box glyphs for instant segfault.

Command line output from this session was:
Generic Warning: In 
/home/buildslave/dashboards/buildbot/paraview-pvbinsdash-linux-shared-release_superbuild/source-paraview/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/Core/vtkSMPropertyHelper.cxx,

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] SWKey: Way to Enlarge Upper Left Display Panel Icons for Picking Points and Cells?

[Scott, W Alan]

Understand.  My monitor resolution (i.e., retinas) behind my just discovered, 
early cataracts, isn't getting better either.  But, you would be surprised how 
many people complained about the font size of text in 5.3'ish.  Thus, the bug 
report on text size, and the bug report on icon size.

By the way, I discovered that one of my problems in Linux land was that 
anti-aliased fonts were not on.  Just use a zoom tool if you are interested in 
finding if you have the issue.  After a bit of googling, I got it to work.  
Greatly helped the fonts - but they still needed the ability to scale.

Hello all,

I'm looking for some help with this question: 
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47465192/camera-rotation-animation

I've copied the text here for your convenience:

I have simulated a rotating cube filled with particles by moving the gravity 
vector rather than changing all of the geometry. I want to use the ParaView 
animation tools to rotate the camera to keep the gravity vector pointing down 
so it all looks right. When moving the camera (not animations) I would use the 
rotate 90 degrees tools.

How would I achieve this effect for an animation?

Many thanks,
Elijah Andrews

Hello,
I am working in a reduced unit system where the computed strain fields are 
around order 1. I could write postprocessors to rescale before visualization 
but that would increase my computational time.
Is there a way to turn off the automatic warping that ParaView performs on 
disp_k (k =x, y, z) fields?
I tried to use the WarpByVector filter with scale of 0.1 or smaller and that 
did not seem to work properly. I should mention I'm on version 5.0 (my favorite 
for a variety of reasons), so maybe the this WarpByVector issue is resolved in 
newer versions.
Thanks,

have two meshes which share some points and cells and each of which have other

I know enough to create a python-based filter (python programmable filter) to 
create this operation, but are there already existing Boolean mesh operations, 
and if not would those be a useful thing to add?

Alan,

Great catch – avi opens with VLC, not with Windoze Media Player

A bit more detail.  I also received the garbage that Dennis did.  When running 
Rendering Settings as use offscreen memory, all was well.  When running use off 
screen memory off, I got all of this verbiage.  But, my .avi’s were good.

Dennis – try opening your .avi’s with VLC.  Does that work?

Here is the verbiage:
[avi @ 0x79d2760] Using AVStream.codec.time_base as a timebase hint to the 
muxer is deprecated. Set AVStream.time_base instead.
[avi @ 0x79d2760] Encoder did not produce proper pts, making some up.

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: pvbatch

[Scott, W Alan]

OK, this … sort of  … worked.  I was able to use the Kitware download (Yay!).  
I called pvbatch (surprisingly, it was built by Kitware for Linux), and then 
used flags --mesa-llvm and --use-offscreen-rendering.  I believe 
--use-offscreen-rendering will be replaced in the future by 
--force-offscreen-rendering in PV 5.5.0.

Thanks Cory, and everyone else that chimed in.

Alan,

You should be able to run

pvpython --force-offscreen-rendering script.py

and no render window will appear. The help for --force-offscreen-rendering says:

  "If supported by the build and platform, create headless (offscreen) render 
windows for rendering results."

I believe this should work on linux systems, but you should try it out on the 
system on which you want to force offscreen rendering just to be sure before 
using it to produce classified images.

pvbatch running the same script will indeed not pop up a render window even 
without the --force-offscreen-rendering option.

Let us know how it goes,
Cory

Ben,
I believe this is a change from the past.  Here is what I desire – how do I get 
it?

I want to run pv(pythonScript).  I want it to produce output.  I want it to run 
off screen, not showing on the console display or current display.  This is 
especially important on classified systems.  MPI is not available.

Not too long ago, my understanding was this was pvbatch.  pvpython used either 
the console display or current display as it’s rendering space.  This does not 
catch my needs.

pvpython is the non-MPI version of pvbatch. The superbuild docs could
probably be improved here. Currently, the mention is:

ParaView supports multiple rendering engines including `egl`,
`mesa`, `osmesa`, and `qt5`. All of these are incompatible with each
other. If none of these are chosen, a UI-less ParaView will be built
(basically just `pvpython`). On Windows and macOS, only the `qt5`
rendering engine is available.

[Paraview] Structured meshes with Material Volume Fractions

[Scott, W Alan]

Does anyone have a very small dataset that is structured meshes, that use 
multiple material volume fractions?

Also, are we missing a functionality processing these datsets?  In other words, 
do we need a filter that will contour over many material volume fractions 
within the same filter?

Thanks,

Hi all,
I had a person come up to my demonstration at SC, and ask if ParaView can read 
Mili files?  I believe Rich Cook worked on a Mili reader about 4 or 5 years ago.

So, can ParaView read a Mili file?

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: pvbatch

[Scott, W Alan]

Ben,
I believe this is a change from the past.  Here is what I desire – how do I get 
it?

I want to run pv(pythonScript).  I want it to produce output.  I want it to run 
off screen, not showing on the console display or current display.  This is 
especially important on classified systems.  MPI is not available.

Not too long ago, my understanding was this was pvbatch.  pvpython used either 
the console display or current display as it’s rendering space.  This does not 
catch my needs.

Alan

pvpython is the non-MPI version of pvbatch. The superbuild docs could
probably be improved here. Currently, the mention is:

ParaView supports multiple rendering engines including `egl`,
`mesa`, `osmesa`, and `qt5`. All of these are incompatible with each
other. If none of these are chosen, a UI-less ParaView will be built
(basically just `pvpython`). On Windows and macOS, only the `qt5`
rendering engine is available.

[Paraview] pvbatch

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Default colorbar style

[Scott, W Alan]

Works for me!

Try deleting your configuration files.  You may have some old trash in there.  
https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView_Settings_Files

Then, in the Color Editor, change your color table.  Down at the bottom, left, 
there is a little cute icon that says "save current color map settings"

Then, open your color legend editor.  Tiny icon, top right.  Change what you 
want.  Be sure to Apply.  Now, little arrow at the bottom, green arrow saving 
stuff on disk.

This held the state after killing and reopening ParaView.

The variable I tested on is a vector.  File/ Open/ Examples/ disk_out_ref.exo/ 
all variables on/ Apply.  Now, color by V.

Hey Alan.

Yes, I've tried the 5.4.1. on Windows and seems to work fine with scalar 
variables, but the font size/color are restored to defauls values for vector 
data.

Also, saving settings as default does not apply to colormap size and location 
which is also very annoying.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Default colorbar style

Hi All.

I'm using Paraview 4.3.1 64bit on Linux (the system can't digest the 5.4 
release for now) and I'm struggling to get the same colorbar style for any 
variable on any render view and layout, i.e. once for all.

As I understand, using "Save current colormap settings as default" in the 
"Color Map Editor" Panel and "Save current settings value as default" in the 
"Edit Color Legend Parameter" panel should do the trick but changing the 
variable resets the font size of both title and text/annotations.

Also, rescaling the colorbar changes the font size to make them fit below a 
certain length or width of the bar which is also very annoying.

I was thus wondering if I'm doing anything/expecting something wrong or if 
there is anybody experiencing the same issue.

Thanks,

R

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] D3 filter crash

[Scott, W Alan]

Don’t forget that each pvserver can’t tell that it is sharing the memory with 
siblings.  Thus, you care about memory use at the node or computer level.

In theory you are correct regarding D3.  It rebalances work, and also creates 
ghost cells around processor boundaries.  But, it is an old, somewhat moody 
filter.  Further, it increases memory footprint significantly (at least copies 
the data).  If you can work without it, do so.  Generally, if you are slow, you 
need more nodes or less data.  In practice, the D3 filter won’t speed you up.

Hi Alan,

The memory inspector turns back about 1% usage per core, so no overload here.
Running 12 instances on a 16-core machine.
Note: the same case runs fine in serial on the same machine, I’m just trying to 
speed up the data processing, as well as prove out some scripts I’m building 
for later use on a cloud machine.

It is my understanding that a D3 filter is required to balance the load across 
all nodes (working off of recomposed time steps).
Am I getting this wrong?

My guess is that you need more nodes?  Before running the D3 filter, try View/ 
Memory Inspector.  If any nodes are over about 60% or 70%, you either need more 
resource, or less data.

I’m curious – why are you running the D3 filter?

Hello Cory & Paraview team,

I am just giving below a SUMMARY on the errors I encountered while working with 
ParaView.

Version 4.0.1 installed on my old (2013) 64-bit Toshiba laptop under Windows 7: 
works fine, shows images for model.vtk & glyph for data.vtk; does not freeze.

Version 5.4.1 just DOES NOT install on my old (2013) Toshiba laptop.

Version 4.0.1 installed on a new (2016) Dell laptop under Windows 7: shows 
images for model.vtk & glyph for data.vtk, but freezes while attempting to do 
full screen or just to drug the screen edge in order to increase screen with 
the following diagnostics:

Output messages
QWidget:: repaint: Recursive repaint detected.

Version 5.4.1 installed on a 2016 Dell laptop under Windows 7: shows images for 
model.vtk, BUT glyph for data.vtk STAYS EMPTY, and the application ALSO freezes 
while attempting to do full screen or just to drug the screen edge in order to 
increase screen, with no diagnostics.

- - - - - - -
So, for now I have to continue working with version 4.0.1, and it is fine, so 
far, for the learning purpose. To prevent freezing, I simply avoid to increase 
screen / full screen.

The  version 4.0.1 was my random choice, just the first version I saw available 
for 64-bit system.
Would you recommend for me to try any newer version?

Many thanks for your help,

For your prompt response. Good to know that the message is harmless.

My Paraview 5.4.1 just stops responding sometimes.

If it stops responding consistently after a specific event or sequence of 
events, please let us know. It shouldn't do that :-)

But, well, I installed on another (older) laptop an older version, 4.0.1 (5.4.1 
did not work there), and it does not freeze. So far, I think it is ok for my 
learning purpose.

Very good.

Both versions (on both computers) allow me to visualize my sample model.vtk 
file: in RenderView I can do Threshold, Slice and Clip and see some 3D 
pictures. But something is wrong with my other sample data.vtk file (or, with 
my approach?). It contains data points (3 coordinates) and the resistivity 
values assigned to them. When I open it, I can see only the resistivity 
colorbar, and I can add axes, but the image stays empty.
Threshold does not work at all (and even the colorbar disappears when I apply 
it).
Slice somewhat works, but it stays gray/empty and does not change as I move it 
along the box.
And when I am in "Slice" mode, pressing "Apply" removes the colorbar as well, 
and does not show anything meaningful.

Any idea how can I activate Threshold or Slice for my resistivity data.vtk?

I am beginner and suspect I just miss something simple...
Reading ParaViewGettingStarted-5.4.0.pdf and ParaViewTutorial54.pdf, does not 
help, so far.

I suspect that you do not have any cells in your 3-point data.vtk file. Without 
cells, there is nothing for ParaView to visualize. This is a common stumbling 
block for people trying to visualize point data.I suggest after loading your 
data applying a Glyph filter. It should show you three spheres colored 
according to your resistivity array. Now you should be able to apply the 
Threshold and Slice filters as you would expect.

Hello list,

Where is the data structure(s) in the code where all the objects for the state 
of a particular ParaView session are kept while it is running?. I have been 
reading the code, and I think it should be in the "internals" of 
vtkSMSessionProxyManager, but I am unsure. As far as I understand, the state 
(which can be saved to XML) is all it takes to recreate a session (Am I right 
here? Probably you need the input data as well, right?).

Thanks for the help!,
Eduardo.

P.S.: Are my emails going to SPAM? Can someone respond ("hi") to this email to

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Problem resetting pan & zoom camera function

[Scott, W Alan]

ParaView on Linux, 5.4.1, local server.  I just tried changing all three 
buttons to Pan, and all three buttons only did Pan.  Next, I tried resetting to 
default, and this also worked.

Try moving (or deleting) your ~/.config/ParaView/* files?

Subject: Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Is anyone using the Extra Headlight in 
ParaView?

Actually I was just talking about this in a Paraview tutorial I gave this 
morning at a conference. I would prefer to kill the hard coded light allowing 
the ability to add in general lights that the user can design and setup. In 
addition to save a conf out for the setup to be used as a default. I normally 
set things up in Paraview export what I need pop them in a CG app so that I can 
light them with so much more control but this is often difficult at best to 
impossible as the norm due to complexity of the scene. If we could get more and 
better light control, especially with Osprey then I'd be a very happy camper.

Just to make really difficult make sure the lights interact with objects/layers 
as desired by the user, including volumeterics. This is a common thing to do in 
CG apps. Light objects A,B,C with light rig1, object D,E with light rig2 and 
object F with light rig3  The easiest way to do this is to have a panel for 
each light, or for paraview the gui controls with a check box list for each 
available layer which can activate/deactivate each light per layer. OK this 
makes sense in my head but I don't think I'm explaining it well do to 
conference exhaustion. If desired I can do a mock up gui layout image of what 
I'm trying to describe.

By default, Paraview illuminates the scene with a

however add an extra headlight. I am about to add a more general capability 
which lets you add any number and any kind of light, including the headlight. 
When I do that, the semi-hardcoded extra headlight becomes redundant. I would 
like to remove it to streamline both the code and the UI.
Are there any objections to me doing that?

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Excel Pivot Table like functionality

All,

So, I have a multi-block dataset (Exodus).   Within each block, I have sets of 
360 elements which have a common index.   So, in Block 1, elements 0-359 have a 
cell variable called N_RING, which is 1.Elements 360-719, have N_RING=2, 
etc.

What I really want is the ability to operate on these sets.   Imagine I have an 
element variable called Ying, which is different for each element in the model. 
 I would like every element with N_RING=1 to have an element variable of 
Ying_max assigned, which is the maximum value of Ying for any element with 
N_RING=1.So, for example,  elements 0-359 would be assigned a value of 
Ying_max which is the maximum value of Ying in any of elements 0-359.   
Elements 360-719 would be assigned a value of Ying_max which is the maximum 
value for any element with N_RING=2.I would ideally also like to get min 
and average.

Is there any way to get max/min/average of a group consisting of a cell 
variable index?  - and to assign the output as element variables so I can color 
by?

Thanks for any hints.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [Paraview] ... not yet supported for more than

Andy, Ashton:  We have now tried versions 5.2, 5.3, and 5.4.  With large point 
data sets we still have the same Generic Warning cited below (followed by 
ERRORS that cause PV to hang).  I reckon that we are hitting the MPI wall 
associated with 2^31 items communicated at once - as per Andy's note below.

All of our recent work has been using the downloadable binaries from 
paraview.org, for both the client and the server.  We see the same behavior 
using the MacOS client to Linux server, and Linux client to Linux server.

This MPI shortcoming is a serious showstopper for us so we are going to have to 
find a remedy.

The first question is: why should either the client or the server think that 
more than 2^31 items need to be communicated in the first place?  On the 
surface, this seems to be unreasonable.

To be clear, there is no problem opening and reading the datafiles, and 
displaying the outline view.  The warning appears when we try to display the 
point view, when the number of points is too large.  If we take a slice that 
reduces the number of points to below some threshold, then the point view 
display is okay.  As an example, consider a .cosmo64 formatted point data file. 
 There are 36 Bytes of data per point.  We can display ~28,000,000 points and 
~35,500,000 points just fine.  At 45,500,000 points (=1.638 GBytes) the Generic 
Warning gets thrown.  This seems to be independent of the number of nodes and 
PEs used by the server, and whether the view RenderView or EyeDomeLighting.   
We also write/read .vtm format that behaves in a similar fashion: slices will 
display okay until the slice is thick enough that there are too many points in 
the image.

I have tried doing MPI on the client, which seems to have no effect on the 
foregoing limitation on the number of displayable points.  Please let me know 
if you can think of other switches that can be thrown, that may shed some more 
light on the issue, or if you are aware of a forthcoming repair.  Thanks very 
much, b.

There are two parts to this issue. The first is that that vtkMPICommunicator 
for PV 4.3.1 won't communicate data that is over 2^31 bytes of data. This is 
fixed in PV 5.2. The other issue is due to MPI having a limit of 2^31 objects 
to be communicated in a single shot. This is MPI's API in that the count for 
objects that are typically sent/received is an int. See  
http://www.mpich.org/static/docs/v3.1/www3/MPI_Send.html for example.

Many of my users are finding the .avi writer to be broken .  The cure for this 
is to close ParaView and delete your configuration files.  We are probably 
getting some strange state from previous versions of ParaView interacting with 
5.4.0.   I will write up a bug, and help Kitware fix it for future releases.

Is the Plot On Intersection Curves filter what I want?

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Zoom in/out

[Scott, W Alan]

One set of ParaView tutorials is here:  
https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/SNL_ParaView_4_Tutorials.

In the one ParaView and Python, the command is given,  with supporting python.  
https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView_and_Python

I believe you are looking for the “Dolly” command.  So,

Control the camera
We want to move the camera.
First, get the camera and reset the camera to a known good position.
camera=GetActiveCamera()
camera.SetFocalPoint(0,0,0)
camera.SetPosition(0,0,-10)
camera.SetViewUp(0,1,0)
How to move the camera closer or further away
camera.Dolly(10)
Render()
camera.Dolly(.1)
Render()

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Use separate arrays for colormap and opacity

[Scott, W Alan]

Hi Evan,
The main Kitware folks that may know this answer are on vacation.  They will be 
back within a week’ish.  If you don’t have an answer in a week, send a friendly 
reminder.

I believe that, without some python voodoo, this is not possible.

We would like to be able to visualize an object without tying the colormap to

OK, this has been replicated twice, once at Kitware.  I believe there may be 
two issues going on, thus wrote up two bugs – and a master bug.  Numerous

what they say at that point.

I have seen this with ParaView 5.4 on one of my 3-4 year old laptops. I have to 
turn off the nvidia chip so I am using the Intel GPU to see the issue. For me 
it impacts all rendering, not just volumes as some have reported. As soon as I 
startup PV 5.4 I get the black box in the corner where the axis actor is 
positioned.

I just realized Cory and Utkarsh are both on vacation which is probably why 
this issue has been a bit quite on the Kitware side.

Should work.  I believe you can create the script by running ParaView, connect

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Black box when starting parvaview

When I open Paraview 5.4.0 amd64 win10, I see the following black box on the 
screen. The box was not originally there and expands to the entire screen when 
data is loaded. Because the coordinate arrows should be there, I believe this 
has something to do with rendering. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling 
the software, to no avail. Has anyone got any ideas?

Daniel,
Your issue is that ParaView is trying to pick up OpenGL from the system.  The 
system version is still Mesa / OpenGL 2.1.  I believe you have three options to 
move forward.  Either do your vis on a computer that has a newer version of 
OpenGL (such as a Windows computer), rebuild and install system wide a newer 
version of Mesa (it needs to support OpenGL 3.2), or third you can fall back to 
ParaView 4.4.0 (available on the Kitware website).  The primary difference 
between ParaView 4.* and 5.* is that 5 requires a newer (but still old) version 
of OpenGL.

[Paraview] Plot over spline or intersecting plane

I am trying to figure out how to plot over more complex surfaces than a 
straight line.  Say a user wants to plot over a curved line, with the line 
matching the inside surface of the can.exo.  Can you now do this?  How would a 
user control the line?

Is the Plot On Intersection Curves filter what I want?

[Paraview] Linux, ParaView and poor fonts

[Scott, W Alan]

ParaView 5.*, our current version of ParaView, now uses system fonts on Linux.  
This is how all applications are moving, and ParaView (and Emacs) is on top of 
the curve.  Unfortunately, if your font files aren't setup correctly, these 
fonts won't anti-alias, and your fonts will be hard to read and look stark and 
small.  This seems to be random, and I haven't been able to figure out why  
anti-aliasing is on or off.  Anyway, here is how to check and fix it.

To check if you are anti-antialiasing, open ParaView, and zoom your screen 
%400.  On Gnome, this can be done by Applications/  Accessories/ KMag.  Zoom in 
until zoom is 1:4.

If you are not anti-aliasing, the title bar will look like this, and you should 
fix your account as described below:
[cid:image001.png@01D2D979.3B7836D0]

If you are anti-aliasing, the title bar will look like this, and you are good:
[cid:image002.png@01D2D979.3B7836D0]


If you are not anti-aliasing, you can add a ~/.fonts.conf file to your home 
directory with the following commands in the body of the file.  Note that 
.fonts.conf files have been deprecated, but it is the only way I could find to 
get fonts to alias.






none




true




hintslight




true

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] dialog windows bug on Paraview 5.3 when changing monitor configuration

[Scott, W Alan]

It probably has to do with your configuration files.  ParaView keeps track of 
how you left the app last time you ran it.  This includes locations for all of 
the dialog windows.

Just delete your configuration files, and all will be well.  Further, ParaView 
will look like it came out of the box.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] dialog windows bug on Paraview 5.3 when changing 
monitor configuration

Paraview Developers,
I have found a bug with Paraview 5.3 on Windows 7 (did not test to see if it 
also exists on other versions/OS's). I recently changed computers, so I moved 
my old computer to a spare desk. My old computer used to have two monitors, but 
now it only has one. The last time I used Paraview, back when it had two 
monitors, the file-open dialog was on the second monitor. Now that the computer 
only has one monitor, it still places the file-open dialog on the "second," 
nonexistent monitor. I fixed this by simply plugging in a second monitor, 
moving the file-open window back to the primary monitor, then re-removed the 
second monitor. This is true for all dialog windows such as the python terminal 
and trace. I do not know if this is a Paraview or general Qt issue.
It's not very often that someone gets rid of monitors, so it's probably low 
priority, but it was certainly one of the most confusing issues I've ever 
resolved, so I thought it was worth mentioning to the community.
Thank you,
Ben Orr

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Ansys Reader

Stephane,
I believe the reason you have not had an answer is that what you are trying to

again, don’t know.

No, the given file does not open in ParaView 5.3.0.  I tried to read it as an 
ANSYS file.  You could try reading a real ANSYS .inp file, if you have one.  
Find out if the reader works.

into ParaView/VTK, it gets placed into what vtkDataSet calls the "field data." 
Because of this, I tend to use the two interchangeably (and likewise so does 
the ParaView GUI). Personally, I prefer the term "global data" as it is more 
descriptive.

Arrays in global/field data can be whatever you want and whatever size you 
want. For example, someone might want to record the total volume of the data 
set. That could reasonably be stored in the global/field data. Another example 
might be that someone wants to record the time at which a particular event 
occurs. This could be stored in the global/field data as an array of marked 
time indices. As you can see, global/field data can mean pretty much whatever 
you want it to mean, so you can't do much with it unless you understand the 
semantics. Consequently, global/field data is mostly ignored by ParaView.

One thing that we have encountered with simulations at Sandia is that the 
simulation might track some global information, such as the mean of a field, 
and append that value to an array in the global data every time a timestep is 
written out. Thus, you end up with a global/field data array of length equal to 
the number of timesteps. The Plot Global Data Over Time filter addresses this 
use case and only this use case.

If you want to compute a value and then plot how that value changes over time, 
your best approach is to write that value out to a table and then use Plot 
Selection Over Time to plot the value.

OK, looking at your reply, I think I have a fundamental misunderstanding, and 
have been mixing up terms.  What is a "global data" and "field data"?  What's 
the difference?

I think you are saying that if we have 43 timesteps (can.exo), any global 
arrays will have 43 entries (such as time or atmospheric pressure).  However, 
field data will have a single entry (such as Title)?  Below, you are setting - 
and resetting - the field data over and over again?

Subject: RE: [Paraview] How do you "see" FieldData

I don't think Plot Global Variables Over Time works the way you think it does. 
This filter assumes that the global arrays contain a static array the same size 
as the number of time steps and then plots that with the time array on the x 
axis and the entries in this array in the y axis. If the size of the global 
variable does not equal the number of time steps, the view will show nothing.

I think you really want to use Plot Selection Over Time. That you can give a 
value and it will iterate the pipeline over time and compute the value for each 
time step. Unfortunately, it looks like the filter is broken for selections on 
field data. It works, however, on table data, so you can write the result as 
that.

I got what I think you want using the can data set. Here are the steps I used:

1. Load can.ex2. All variables. Apply.
2. Add the Programmable Filter. Set the output type to vtkTable (!) and use the 
following script:
disp_y = inputs[0].PointData["DISPL"][:,1]
mean_disp = mean(disp_y)
output.RowData.append(mean_disp, "MEAN_DISP")
3. Select the single row shown in the spreadsheet that pops up.
4. Add Plot Selection Over Time filter. Apply.

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Potential bug (feature request) Export Scene PV/5.3.0

[Scott, W Alan]

Jennifer,
The bug you list was written for and found on PV 5.3.  It is scheduled to be 
fixed by next fall,  PV 5.5, for Supercomputing.

The user can output the data in question by using Save Data.  This will save 
all of the data from the plot selections filter, giving many more columns than 
the user wanted.  But, that is his/her fallback for now.

We have a customer inquiring about whether there's a capability to export scene 
save min as well as max, indicates that the max is only exportable.  Can you 
please advise whether this is available in 5.3.0 or if it's on the roadmap for

Thanks!



This is an actual PV bug as reported by Alan Scott:


Export Scene for 2d plots misses columns

I believe we are missing columns of information when Export Scene is run for 2d 
plots. Here is how to replicate:

  *   5.3.0, Linux, local server.
  *   can.exo, all vars on, apply.
  *   Select Points On. Select maybe 10 points somewhere on the can.
  *   Plot Selection. Apply. Turn on only ACCL Magnitude.
  *   Export Scene.

Now, open the file. You will find columns for time, average, median, min/max (I 
believe it is max), and q1/q3 (I believe it is the third quartile.

What I want is time, average, median, min, max, q1 and then q3.

So in summary, yes it is possible to do this with the programmable filter. 
What you do is check the time to see if it equals the target time step. If so, 
save the array from the desired field in a global variable. Then on other time 
steps do the difference. 

You may have noticed I'm not giving you code. This is because I am too lazy

David,

I can not send my data set,
But I am experiencing similar problems
With one of visit's sample data sets.

curv3d.silo (A multi-block containing a structured curvilinear grid)

I clip it and then render it with the default volume renderer

and it works, but then when I turn on OSPRay it fails. (crashes)

Strangely enough it also fails (does not renderer visibly) in the default
renderer when I do not first clip it.


My data which is failing is instead a large unstructured grid with cell/Point
arrays

They visualize ok with the default Volume renderer but are invisible with the

OSPRay volume renderer. I have not yet found a sample I can share with you
that has the same

behavior. I will see if I can get you one though. Do you know of any similar
publicly available samples?


I have also tried the vtk analyze sample data

S01_epi_r01_001.img
S01_epi_r01_001.hdr

Which are image (uniform rectangular grids)

S01_epi_r01_001 renderers correctly with both the default volume renderer

and the OSPRay one.

Thanks,

Joe

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Regarding creating high quality small size animations

[Scott, W Alan]

As with most things in life, you have a balance.  Generally speaking, for 
better quality, you will need larger movies.  For smaller movies, you will have 
higher compression and poorer quality.  And of course, the smaller the screen 
size, the smaller the resultant movie.  So, you get to choose.

.png is an intermediate file format or storage that you will use.  I believe 
that when you make movies, the final file format (and movie size) is what will 
determine the movie size.

Regarding .png’s, they are lossless compression.  .jpg’s are lossy compression. 
 Png’s lose no quality, jpg’s lose quality.

Hi Scott

Thanks for your reply. Will PNG ensure the final movie size is small? Or is 
there something else that will determine the final size?

Dear all

I am trying to export my animation, but want to keep the size small, and 
quality of the simulation good. How can I go about it?

I tried to directly save in the avi format, but the quality is bad and size is 
too large.

[Paraview] 2d image tiling problem

[Scott, W Alan]

Hi guys,
I have a user that wants to visualize very large images (i.e., terrabyte size 
images).  These images are composed of tiles or subimages, which are offset in 
the main image according to a metafile.  Does Kitware have any tools for 
visualizing and manipulating large images?

Thanks,

Alan

I just tried saving animations, Linux, local server, using master from 
yesterday.  This includes a fix for

I was able to successfully create an .avi file with can.exo in one view and

save animation bugs, please let Kitware know.

Hi, Utkarsh

I've tried your patch and now it's possible to set real numbers for axis range

are work). However, in Calculator filter dot and comma are treated differently 
for real numbers in scientific notation: exponent is ignored when using dot.

Also, I noticed another issue -- saving animation with two views (one, for 
example, with 2D/3D distribution and one with 1D) is not working anymore! In 
final movie I see two views but both with the same distribution.

[Paraview] volume vs volume

[Scott, W Alan]

Hi all,
I was trying to find volume for a user, and started wondering if the user 
wanted volume of the dataset, or volume of each cell.  Turns out that there is 
incorrect information on the list.  I believe the following is true:




Volume of the dataset:

  Python Calculator.  Expression: volume(inputs[0]).  Array Name: totalVolume.  
Apply.




Volume of each cell:
  Programmable Filter.  Script, then Apply:

from vtk.numpy_interface import algorithms as algs

volume = algs.volume(inputs[0])
output.CellData.append(volume, 'volumeOfEachCell')
