[Paraview] Some more questions on animation
Greetings all, I'm trying to make several animations that involve the use of the same camera values in the Animation Keyframes. In so doing, is it possible to simply cut and paste the values to other animations? If so, how do I go about doing that? Also, what is the best way to export the animations to Powerpoint? Thanks!

[Paraview] Particles-in-Cells: Two XDMF files?
Hi ParaView mailing list, we are adding paraview/xdmf support to our particle-in-cell code PIConGPU [1] right now. To start with the general topology: The particle in cell algorithm stores field data (scalars and vectors) on a grid, in the simplest case a 3DCoRectMesh. In between the mesh points live particles, described with a Polyvertex topology. The problem that now arises: we would like to describe both grid and polyvertex data in the *same xdmf file*. Doing so, e.g. by combining them on the Domain level in two separate Temporal Collections causes ParaView to refuse volume-rendering the fields (not available in the drop down menu). Adding two Domains to one file causes ParaView to omit the second data domain during load. Adding both grid types in the same Temporal Collection causes a crash. Do we really have to write two xdmf files or did we miss a point? A snippet of our data structures, stored in a hdf5 file per time step: ?xml version=1.0 ?

Re: [Paraview] Some more questions on animation
I'm trying to make several animations that involve the use of the same camera values in the Animation Keyframes. In so doing, is it possible to simply cut and paste the values to other animations? If so, how do I go about doing that? Jesse, I'd suggest using Python tracing capabiltiies to capture the state of the animation and then replaying that python trace on each of the animations. You could also save Python state out then extract animation related state from the state file and replay that. Also, what is the best way to export the animations to Powerpoint? Saving it out as an avi (or a series of png images that you stitch together using some other tool) is probably your best bet.

Re: [Paraview] Setting sample distance for GPU volume rendering?
Hi Utkarsh, Changing DataRep.ScalarOpacityUnitDistance shows up as what's in the Scale input box. Going the other direction, setting the Scale in the GUI is what python prints for DataRep.ScalarOpacityUnitDistance so they do seem to be the same thing? Mark -Original Message- From: Utkarsh Ayachit [mailto:utkarsh.ayac...@kitware.com] Sent: Friday, February 21, 2014 8:55 AM To: Vanmoer, Mark W Cc: paraview Subject: Re: [Paraview] Setting sample distance for GPU volume rendering? Mark, Scale on the ColorScaleEditor is control the scale used to map data scalars to colors or opacity, while sampling distance controls the length at which the samples are accumulated when volume rendering. The two are indeed different.

I was getting color bands across the volumized(?) sections of the image and I was thinking that changing the ray sample distance would help that. But I just figured out that if I scale up the data the bands go away. The data was 300^3 cells jammed into bounds of -1.8 to 1.8.

Re: [Paraview] trouble with paraview.simple.AssignLookupTable
Hi Alan,
You get the array object from the source/reader/filter's point data. for
example
w = Wavelet()
wa = w.PointData.GetArray('RTData')
See if this example doesn't help:
