Hi Richard, If you don't mind, let's keep the discussion on the list so that others may benefit from the discussion.
Outputting a vtkTable is the right thing to do. What I suspect is happening with the first error message is that if you execute a programmable source with the output set to one type of data set (e.g., vtkPolyData), there is a bug that doesn't let you switch to a different type of output. As a workaround, you can create a new Programmable Source, copy and paste your code from the original Programmable Source into the new one, and set the output type to vtkTableData *before* you click Apply. To view line plots of your data, you'll need to create a Line Chart View by splitting the 3D Render View. To do this, look for the icon on the top right of the 3D Render View that has two vertically-oriented rectangles side by side (tool tip "Split Horizontal"). In the list of views that comes up, click on "Line Chart View". If your line plots are not visible right away, you will need to make them visible by clicking on the eye icon next to the Programmable Source. Voila, you should have a line plot. Hope that helps, Cory On Wed, Sep 9, 2015 at 5:23 AM, no name <keinepostnurmu...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hey Cory > > Thanks for the hint!
