A followup to my question.

Presuming this is a bug, which means it might require some time to
fix, I went ahead and figured out a work-around.

I just bring up a "Calculator" filter and duplicate the problematic
field ("mass") as "massdup", and then put that through the
TemporalParticlesToPathlines filter.  And now I have access to
the data of interest.

Curiously, it's the "massdup" field that is now replaced by "TrailId".

Sounds like a bug. Do you have data/pipeline to reproduce it?

Sure. I put a tar file at:
http://iq-station.org/downloads/Part2Path_debug.tar.gz

I included the first 9 steps of the data.

Hello,

I am confused by something that the TemporalParticlesToPathlines
filter seems to be doing. It seems to be deleting or replacing
one of the scalar fields in the "Pathlines" output.

I have a rather simple pipeline:

Data
TemporalInterpolator
TemporalParticlesToPathlines
Pathlines
Tube
Particles
Glyph

So the data has a handful of scalar values:
* density
* id
* mass
* type
* velocity (okay, not a scalar)
* vphi

And all the filters offer these as available to color the data
by -- except! Except under the Pathlines (and Tube), the "mass"
data is replaced by "TrailId".

Of course, I'm trying to color the pathlines by the value of the
particle "mass", so this is a problem for me.

And I'm using the "id" field to make sure the particles are properly
associated with their past selves in the "TemporalParticlesToPathlines"
filter.

Any thoughts? Didn't find anything via Google (though I limited the
search to the past year).

Oh, and I tried this both with ParaView versions 4.0.1 and 4.1.0.

Thank you,
Bill
