Is there a pipeline that would allow me to extract a block from a
MultiBlock data set and end up with the "native type" of vtk object
that the block represents?
I have a custom reader that reads data from an HDF5 file and outputs
vtkMultiBlockDataset. I then use the "ExtractBlock" filter to pull out
a specific data set. The type of data is a Uniform Rectilinear Grid
that is store in the block. After the ExtractBlock the extracted data
is still listed as MultiBlock. I then run some filters (Extract
Surface) that generates PolyData. I would now like to "AppendDatasets"
but the filter is not available because I am assuming that the filter
does not like the vtkMultiBlockDataset that are produced from all the
other steps.
I am thinking of a filter such that the input is a
MultiBlockDataset and the output is a vtkImage, or vtkPolyData or
something like that.
Thanks for any help.
this is on ParaView 3.8.0 RC1, OS X 10.5.8, Qt 4.6.2 Cocoa.
