[Paraview] Generating data on the client side - a development environment

Hallo I have a question regarding a requirement that seems a bit out of line with the client-server architecture of Paraview; Let me start off by giving the bigger picture of the application that I have in mind; I want to use Paraview in a development environment. The development environment

[Paraview] How to visualize multipart/multiblock models

2008-12-18 Thread M. Nawijn
Hello, I am trying to find a way to subdivide a structural analysis model in several parts in such a way that I can post-process the results in Paraview. The primary objective for me is to be able to hide and show different parts of the structure. The model itself is not too large (say 50.000

We are working on creating a separate install target that will install all development dependencies. Once that is done, you should be able to do something like make install_development and then use those files. This will be a very welcome addition. The hard-coded paths in the cmake files are

Hi everybody, I have a time-dependent field u(x,y,z,t) and two scalars s1(t), s2(t). At the time being, for each time frame I have a separate .vtk file u(x,y,z,t0) - step_.vtk u(x,y,z,t1) - step_0001.vtk u(x,y,z,t2) - step_0002.vtk etc. whereas the corresponding scalar quantities are stored

Currently there is no way to hide-show individual blocks in a multiblock dataset or assign colors to them. However, you can apply the Extract Block filter to extract each individual blocks and then apply colors to them or show/hide them. Utkarsh On Thu, Dec 18, 2008 at 6:15 AM, M. Nawijn

Hi Marco, Which version of ParaView are you using? In 3.4, you can create a vtm file that points to the individual vtu files. You can then color the blocks separately using the vtkCompositeIndex array (just color by it). You can control the color of each block by editing the color map.

We actually have an internal git that tracks the ParaView cvs. Some us (including me) has been using it for a while now. It is not totally issue free (mostly due to the cvs-git bridge) so we don't plan to make it public. I suspect that we will move to svn at one point and possibly provide a

Mike, I might totally unaware of what you are talking about, but do you mean I will have to store s1(t0) and s2(t0) together with u(x,y,z,t0)? Here u(x,y,z,t0) is a scalar field at time t0 (i.e. nx times ny times nz data points), whereas s1(t0) is *a single value* at time t0. How can I get

If you want to store values that are not associated with points or cells, you can store them in the field data. ParaView reads field data with everything else. The question is, what do you want to do with those values after you load them? -berk On Thu, Dec 18, 2008 at 12:11 PM, Daniele Avitabile
