Re: [Paraview] Custom Python plugin with multiple input ports

Thanks Utkarsh! It's a neat hack, and it will fit my problem perfectly. The dark side of this patch is that you are limited to one or two inputs ports. It would not be possible to create more complex filter like, for example, the vtkLandmarkTransformFilter (which needs 3 separate input ports).

Re: [Paraview] Programmable sphere source - update position each timestep from csv file

James, Thanks for sharing your solution. That seems like a reasonable approach to achieving what you need. I was thinking you might be able to use the animation controls to specify the centers of your sphere, but that does not appear to be possible with discrete sphere positions. You can do some

Re: [Paraview] Custom Python plugin with multiple input ports

The attached patch for vtkPythonProgrammableFilter along with a minor tweak to your plugin XML does the trick. I can have this cleaned up and merged in "master" for 5.2 if that's acceptable. Utkarsh On Fri, Jul 15, 2016 at 3:20 PM, Utkarsh Ayachit < utkarsh.ayac...@kitware.com> wrote: > Doh! I

Re: [Paraview] Transforming vs transform filter
