[Paraview] Particle pathlines scalar array dropped

2009-04-15 Thread Eric E. Monson
Hey, (Maybe this is a question specifically for John Biddiscombe, but I think others have contributed, too.) Is there a particular reason that the Scalar Array combo box was dropped from the Particle Pathlines (vtkTemporalPathLineFilter) filter XML (gui) when it was brought into CVS

[Paraview] Building a 3D scalar surface plot

2009-04-15 Thread Hugo Gagnon
Hi, I got a .vtk file with some scalar quantities given along the x and y coordinates (2D). I would like to plot these scalar quantities, say the temperature, in a 3D surface plot instead of just visualizing a 2D color map by default. Thanks for the help! Hugo.

Oops. This is my bad. I made several improvements to the particle pathlines filter. One of the improvements was to pass all of the field data to the pathline much like the streamlines filter does. This makes the scalar array combo box obsolete. However, I didn't check in the changes to the

Ok. This is a nasty one. Before I tell you the fix, be aware that this will change soon. We are working on cleaning up the animation time issues that this is exposing. So here's the problem, you are loading a dataset with single timestep. So ParaView switches to SnapToTimeSteps mode and also

Part of the problem is that the file series reader is reporting time even when you are loading a single file with no time in it. In retrospect, that is probably not a good idea. I just assigned a bug to myself to look into it. -Ken On 4/15/09 8:48 AM, Utkarsh Ayachit

Read in the sphere radii and tube radii as point data on the dataset that you are creating. Both the glyph filter and the tube filter has options that allow you to scale the glyph (and the tube) by point data. On Wed, Apr 15, 2009 at 9:15 AM, Sreejith Kuttanikkad sreejit...@gmail.com wrote: Dear

Sreejith, For two truly separate parts, create two separate *.vtu files. Each of the files should have a unique name (not really necessary for PV). PV is happy to read and display multiple datum sets -- even the same datum set twice. If you plan later to have many parts (for example, 100

I have a meta-reader that I wrote a while ago. It can handle series of q files (also series of xyz files). I am too busy to test it now. I hope that I can take a look at it soon. -berk On Thu, Apr 9, 2009 at 2:46 PM, Alexej Goehring alexej.goehr...@arup.com wrote: Yes, that is correct. A static
