[Paraview] problem for visualisation of contours on thin shell

2012-11-07 Thread Luc Bordier
Hi, When I do line contours on 2 sided thin shell, I have observed a problem of display : The line contour on one side of the shell overlaps when looking at the other face. Is there any turn around ? Thanks ___ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit

So that's working now in terms of the cast, forgot GetOutput() inside the cast operator! The returned vtkUGrid is now fully populated and contains sensible information. However, both getPointData()-GetGlobalIds() and getCellData()-GetGlobalIds() return null pointers. Any thoughts? Also,

Hmmm. I thought global point IDs were always created. Maybe it only happens when ghost cells are created. Try getting that working first. As far as global cell IDs are concerned, you are out of luck. vtkDistributedDataFilter does not create them. But they are not all that useful anyway since,

Hello, Since the data is essentially structured (rectilinear grids), I think the best way to get the global/local mapping is to use extent information. Specifically, you need the whole extent of the grid and the global extent of each partition. Then from the global IJK of a point or cell, and the

Many thanks for that. I perform some threshold stuff early on, so basically I'm working with unstructured grids pretty much from zero. I think I need to try to populate the ghost cells using the approach Ken suggested, but I'm not sure how to do that both from a conceptual point of view - I'd

The instructions I gave were for a downstream filter separate from D3. If you want to modify D3 itself (which sounds like a reasonable good idea for your purposes) then you will have change the value for UPDATE_NUMBER_OF_GHOST_LEVELS that the RequestData reads. If you want to go with this

By downstream I mean a separate filter that is connected to the output of vtkDistributedDataFilter or further down the output ancestry. In your original example you had the chain of filters vtkDistributedDataFilter - vtkPieceScalars - vtkDataSetSurfaceFilter. vtkPieceScalars and
