[Paraview] PV 3.8.0 creating 2D vectors from 3D vectors

2010-07-29 Thread Stephen Wornom
I have 2 3D unstructured mesh with vectors. I would like to view only the components in a x-y plane. If I used the glyph2 , I get 3D vectors. How can I set the Vector-Z = 0? Thanks in advance, Stephen p.s. I used the calculator to set vec2d-x = velocity_x vec2d-y = velocity_y but how can I get

Use the following expression instead in your calculator to generate a vector with Z component =0 velocity_X*iHat+velocity_Y*jHat Utkarsh On Thu, Jul 29, 2010 at 7:02 AM, Stephen Wornom stephen.wor...@sophia.inria.fr wrote: I have 2 3D unstructured mesh with vectors. I would like to view only

The test file to be read in shouldn't be too large so that the test actually completes fairly quickly. My best recommendation is to see how other readers are being test. What type of output does your reader produce? Andy On Tue, Jul 27, 2010 at 11:40 PM, Mark Olesen

[Paraview] Follow a moving object

2010-07-29 Thread Rick Angelini
I have a time series dataset and the geometry moves over time. Is there a way to make the geometry so that it remains centered in the display window? I want to keep the view centered on a part centroid, for instance. Otherwise, the object moves off of the screen over time .

There is still no good way to do this in the UI. Please file a feature request. I don't see any reason why this can't be made automatic in the GUI. In the meantime, the path I am thinking that one might do this at the user level is to select the point/cell you want to follow, plot that over time.
