Hello there, I am trying to cook up a batch file for the visualization pipeline that I am doing on ParaView GUI so that I can run that same sequence in batch mode and in parallel using pvbatch. I can get most of the python script using the Tool->Start Trace option on ParaView GUI. However, Start Trace didn't capture python script when I do a File->Save Data command.
For example, if I open up ParaView 4.1.0 and do a Tool->Start Trace, and then load up a cone and hit Apply and then do a File-> Save Data into legacy vtk format, and then do a Tool->Stop Trace, I will get the following python script ------------------ start python script ------------------ try: paraview.simple except: from paraview.simple import * paraview.simple._DisableFirstRenderCameraReset() Cone1 = Cone() RenderView1 = GetRenderView() DataRepresentation1 = Show() DataRepresentation1.ScaleFactor = 0.1 DataRepresentation1.EdgeColor = [0.0, 0.0, 0.5000076295109483] RenderView1.CameraPosition = [0.0, 0.0, 3.2036135254332487] RenderView1.CameraClippingRange = [2.309882128879306, 4.336364527086367] RenderView1.CameraParallelScale = 0.8291561935301535 Render() ------------- end python script ------------------- I will get the cone data saved to legacy vtk format in a file [simonsm@abc ~]$ cat test.vtk # vtk DataFile Version 3.0 vtk output ASCII DATASET POLYDATA POINTS 7 float 0.5 0 0 -0.5 0.5 0 -0.5 0.25 0.433013 -0.5 -0.25 0.433013 -0.5 -0.5 6.12323e-17 -0.5 -0.25 -0.433013 -0.5 0.25 -0.433013 POLYGONS 7 31 6 6 5 4 3 2 1 3 0 1 2 3 0 2 3 3 0 3 4 3 0 4 5 3 0 5 6 3 0 6 1 So, what is the python script command I need to save the data and how do I turn the python script from the Start Trace output into python script that I can run with pvbatch? Anything I need to strip off the output? thanks -simon
