Can you return control to the GUI during the execution of the python script?
During the loop I want to enable GUI interaction w/ the view,
i.e. use mouse to rotate/translate/etc...
but ParaView will not let me move/rotate until After the script is complete.

What you need is something like:

pm=servermanager.ProxyManager()
femdata = pm.GetProxy("sources","femdata")
for i in range(10):
femdata.FileName = "foo%d.inp" % i
servermanager.GetRenderView().StillRender()

ParaView takes care of updating other objects for you. If you want to
learn more, I suggest searching for "demand driven pipeline". The VTK
book is a good source of information.

Not sure if the AVS file reader is "time aware" but,
using the python interface it seems possible to write a script
to animate a time series of AVS files.  Changing the reader filename via the
python interface seems to work:


 pm=servermanager.ProxyManager()
 femdata = pm.GetProxy("sources","femdata")
 femdata.SetPropertyWithName("FileName",".../new_filename.inp")



To create an animation would probably have to update various
other objects attached to the reader though.
How could you determine all objects attached to the reader
that need to be updated?


using paraview 3.2.1,
