[Paraview] Questions on Paraview with 3D vector fields

Hello All: I'm working with 3D vector fields (2 of them in the same space) and want to do a fly through, set the center to be one of the arrow glyphs, and do some calculations on both fields using the calculator. I can't seem to do any of these. Any ideas? It looks like the center selection

Re: [Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: Comparison of Visit and ParaView development

I use both VisIt and ParaView at NCSA regularly, depending upon what the teams I support are already using. If I have a free hand I generally pick ParaView because (1) I learned VTK first and it’s very straightforward to mentally map a VTK vis pipeline to ParaView and (2) I find the ParaView

Re: [Paraview] Visualization of strata in ParaView

Welcome to ParaView Steve, Everybody was a noob when they first tried to use ParaView, but the more you use ParaView, the smarter it gets. Now, to your question about displaying a geological stratigraphy in ParaView, assuming that you have surfaces (of some sort, but preferably cell

Re: [Paraview] created representation is invisible in view

Thanks! Just found out that another solution is to set the view's "Representations" property to repr and the representation's "Input" property to sphere. I'll try yours as well, it looks much simpler. Peter 2016-06-15 19:46 GMT+02:00 Utkarsh Ayachit : > You're

Re: [Paraview] created representation is invisible in view

You're missing "adding the representation to the view" part, typically done using vtkSMParaViewPipelineControllerWithRendering::Show. See this example:

Re: [Paraview] vtkSMCollaborationManager::FollowUser(id) doesn't update view

I don't find anything constructive in your answer. If you think paraview sucks, I don't care if you discuss it in your own thread. But I am of a different opinion and I prefer positive discussions, so please stop it here. Peter 2016-06-15 7:34 GMT+02:00 Sven Kramer : >

[Paraview] created representation is invisible in view

Hello, short question, probably with an easy answer: Why is the vtkSMRepresentationProxy, created for a vtkSMSourceProxy of a SphereSource not rendered in the attached c++ code? I guess I am missing a step which adds the representation to the view. But how? Peter #include "vtkSMSession.h"

[Paraview] Plot csv over time

Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to plot csv data over time? Specifically, I would like to read into an active Paraview session that already has some exodus results loaded a csv file (this I can already do). This csv file came from the same simulation as the exodus data. I’d like to

Re: [Paraview] display boundaries of 2D geometry

Hi Samuel, thank you! So there is a way to do what I want provided that the mesh data are converted similar to the files you sent me. Good to know. It would probably require some coding from my side to implement that solution for my workflow, i.e. teach Salomé and/or Elmer to convert the mesh

Re: [Paraview] Comparison of Visit and ParaView development

I will leave it to the community to address some of these concerns since I am obviously biased. However, Sven made some misguided and unfair statements and I would like to address those. Books: Utkarsh & the ParaView community have put a lot of effort in developing a User's Guide for ParaView,

[Paraview] Visualization of strata in ParaView

Before starting, I should state that I'm a complete noob to ParaView, having only worked with it for a couple of weeks, so if this is a FAQ, I will be humbly abashed if pointed to somewhere rather obvious. I have a dataset which is somewhat different than those which I believe are normally

[Paraview] Comparison of Visit and ParaView development

Dear ParaView programmers, I would like to have some opinions on the suitability of either ParaView or Visit for large scalable visualization applications. When I had the first contact to visualization more than 5 years ago, Visit was not quite scalable and ParaView seemed the only open source

Re: [Paraview] [ParaView] How to add slice thickness ?

Chaturi, I'm still not clear on what your input is. Are you loading a series of 2D images? Is that working? What kind of data set do you get after loading (look under the Information tab under Type:)? Do you see just one slice when the data is loaded or an outline of a 3D box? Please provide
