Hello everyone.

There have been some discussions in various threads about both ASCII
and binary reading of Tecplot files.

There are several ways that paraview tries to read them depending on
the chosen extension.
For example .tec asks for "Visit's reader, or only Tecplot reader" and
when .dat is chosen it tries to use the Paradis reader

I'm not familiar with those readers, however from the discussion it
seems that the Visit reader is most up to date.

Unfortunately I never succeed in reading the ASCII files in Tecplot 10
format (the only tecplot version I have) with the Visit reader
(nor any other). I get the "vtkVisItTecplotReader ... Unable to find
any meshes" etc.

I've tried reading the new dataformat file for the 360-version that
supposedly work with paraview, however I can't see any noticable
differences between the Tecplot 10 and 360 versions.
In short what is the status of the Visit reader and how, if possible,
can I read Tecplot 10 ASCII data into ParaView (3.10.1 linux).
Binary is not an option I'm afraid (although that doesn't work
neither), as I also want to use other software that only writes
Tecplot 10 ASCII.


Cheers,
Ingvar
