AFAIK, ParaView has no capability of projecting vector on surfaces. That's why you need to work around with Calculator every time you need to get a vector projection. If your plane is not just a coordinate plane, you can use Generate Surface Normals filter, but it doesn't work on all datasets (in

[Paraview] in-plane vector field from 3D vector field

2016-09-05 Thread Matthias Sitte
Hi list, first steps in Paraview... I have a 3D vector field over a regular grid of Nx*Ny*1 cells. I would like to plot the z component as surface and the in-plane xy components as an in-plane vector field. The Glyph filter only plots the full 3D vector field -- I haven't been able to figure
