Re: [Paraview] Differences between OpenGL and OpenGL2 versions of ParaView

This code is all new hence the change. On the plus side if you moved from 4000 blocks of 10 triangles each to 4000 blocks of 1 triangles each the rendering performance would probably not slow down. The overhead is all in starting and stopping each of those 4000 mappers. The old backend wrote

Re: [Paraview] Differences between OpenGL and OpenGL2 versions of ParaView

Hi Ken and Utkarsh, Checking back in with this issue... I still find that interaction with the g-2 ring in ParaView v5rc2 is very slow compared to v4.4. It looks like you all have a solution in mind. I'm happy to build from master to try it if the solution is there. Thanks again and Happy

[Paraview] Paraview 5.0.0RC2 crashes at launch

Sadly it still crashes immediately after showing the splash screen without much information. I tried the -dr argument in the command line, but without success either. Any idea of what could be wrong? I also have issues displaying axes labels on Paraview 4.4. I suspect some video driver problem,

Re: [Paraview] Differences between OpenGL and OpenGL2 versions of ParaView

Hi Ken - thanks for your reply. It's looking like the last approach - I figure out why I'm getting different blocks - is the way to go. It's already clear that not all of the blocks have colors. Some of the blocks are created by vtk sources (e.g. VtkConeSource) and others are created by hand (me

Re: [Paraview] Differences between OpenGL and OpenGL2 versions of ParaView

I don't really have a solution planned for that case. The data size is trivially small but it falls into the slow path because each block of data may or may not have normals or colors or tcoords. The nature of the blocks is heterogeneous. So you end up with 4000 mappers each rendering 10

[Paraview] Any objections to dropping 32 bit WIndows binaries?

Folks, I am trying to see if there are any objections to dropping 32 bit Windows binaries for the 5.0 release. We'll still distribute the 64 bit Windows binaries. Thanks Utkarsh ___ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects

Re: [Paraview] Paraview 5.0.0RC2 crashes at launch

The issue is indeed that your OpenGL drivers are old. We're working on something that will catch this and report it in a more graceful way. Utkarsh On Wed, Dec 16, 2015 at 3:12 PM, Fernando G. del Cueto wrote: > Sadly it still crashes immediately after showing the splash

Re: [Paraview] Access point/cell data as Python variable

It isn't easy to get the the values, because the client only accesses proxies for the filters and data objects, which often exist on remote distributed memory parallel machines. Three strategies: 1) write a python programmable filter. That runs in parallel on remote machines and has access to the

[Paraview] Volume Rendering with NumberOfScalarComponents > 1

Hello, the Python VTK script below gives results, like a expect. Now I'm trying to reproduce it in Paraview and I fail. I get rather confused as soon I give it a source with more than one scalar component. Paraview creates one color map; I would expect 3 color maps, 1 for every component. What

Axel We were just discussing this few days ago. Do you have to use paraview gui? Or paraview python will work? There might be a way in pv python route. Thanks Sent from my iPhone > On Dec 16, 2015, at 5:01 AM, Axel Kittenberger wrote: > > Hello, > > the Python VTK

Re: [Paraview] Filter cell type from PolyData VTK file

Thanks for the helpful tips. First approach has the disadvantage that I need to specify the underlying points in each of the separate files, which leads again to some redundancy. But good to know. EnSight format looks promising though, I didn't know about it before. Thanks again, Viktor
