[Paraview] PV 4.1: animations of large data

2015-01-07 Thread Stephen Wornom
I create animation using PV with mpi. I can create 200 frames quickly, no problem. The problem is visualizing the frames. What I do currently is to create a gif convert *.jpg animation.gif animate animation.gif The problem is that the gif file is huge, takes a long time to load the gif

Hi Alan, I'm thinking it may be easiest to let Python do the heavy lifting on this to figure out the files to read in. You can use glob from the glob module and then sort the files. So that would look like: === import glob files = glob.glob(z_pinch*) files.sort() # if the order of the files

Rather than fix this specific instance, it might be better to have a smarter output window that recognizes when a message is repeated and reports only once with an indicator of how many times it was raised. Now that I think about it, it would be nice if the output window also cleaned up all

[Paraview] Help with memory crash?

I am trying to run a script on a cluster with Paraview in parallel. The cluster architecture is 16cores and 64GB per node. The script reads in two XMF files, one contains a grid of 2002x100x1000 points along with one variable. There is a loop to perform two iterations: try: paraview.simple

[Paraview] Relative frequencies in Histogram plots

2015-01-07 Thread Ethan Hereth
Good afternoon and happy new year! I have a colleague who would like to be able to plot the relative frequency of the histogram data instead of absolute bin count. I.e. instead of having the left axis say there are 100 things in bin one, he'd like for it to say that 5% of the things are in bin

So I did some more tests by running the script interactively. I used a smaller grid first, 2002 x 20 x 1000 points and ran it only for 1 iteration. When Paraview loaded the memory usage on the server was 1.04GB. After doing one iteration the memory usage spiked to 10.42GB and remained like that

Most filters would have to do something like Andy suggests, but the Exodus reader just so happens to have the ability to find all relevant files if you point to the first one (for historical reasons). So using the following should work: z_pinch1exo8 =

Yeah, I can certainly see that as a problem. We could change the behavior to be more like other modern readers where you have to list all the files, but that would break backward compatibility and some other features (such as restart case files

Yep, that did it. Only option I didn't try. I will pass this on to my user. This is also an issue, since if a user wants to only open file 'z_pinch1.exo.8.0', or 'z_pinch1.exo.8.5' which does happen fairly often, they can't. Any ideas how to get that to work? Maybe we need to rethink how we
