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] 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] Custom Python plugin with multiple input ports

Doh! I forgot that the number of ports need to set in the constructor of the vtkAlgorithm subclass. Grr...let me see if there's a workaround. I'll get back to you on it. On Fri, Jul 15, 2016 at 2:37 PM, LB wrote: > Hi Utkarsh, > > Multiple input ports are exactly what I

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

Hi Utkarsh, Multiple input ports are exactly what I want. But I can't get it to work. I've attached my last XML plugin attempt with different port_index definition. When I try to use it, I have the following error: /ParaViewVTK/Common/ExecutionModel/vtkAlgorithm.cxx, line 893

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

Sorry for chiming in late, but here are some things to note: * Both Dennis and Cory are talking about multiple connections on the same input port. This is arguably not too well supported since the order cannot be determined easily. * Seems to me you want multiple input ports, each with a single

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

Hi Cory, As I understand, the Python Programmable filter can accept only one input port, but this port can accept multiple connections. The order of multiple connections on the same port cannot be controlled by the user. My filter need two input datasets, but they are not commutable. The user

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

Loïc, Python Programmable Filter can indeed take more than one input. Select all the inputs in the Pipeline Browser you want to pass to the Programmable Filter before you create it. Within the script, you can access the inputs with input1 = self.GetInputDataObject(0, 0) input2 =

[Paraview] Custom Python plugin with multiple input ports

Hi, I would like to make some custom python plugins for ParaView. I've made one based on a PythonProgrammableFilter with the help of the Python Filter Generator Script (https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/snippets/5). It's working pretty well, but it seems that the
