In exodus format, one generally writes all the steps (state1, state2, ...) in the same file. This relies on the mesh topology being the same for the entire set of steps.

I then recently switched to the Exodus format, the information in the files remains exactly the same (say, state1.exo, state2.exo, state2.exo,...). When opening each file individually, one is presented with a slightly altered menu as opposed to VTU files (--makes sense--), but it does not seem to be possible to "play" the sequence of the files. ParaView would always iterate over "time" from 0 to 1 in in steps of 1/9, instead of iterating over the files. -- Is that something that cane be fixed, or am I ideally expected to present the data to ParaView in a different way?
