Hi Dennis, The converter evaluates your Python script and then uses some Python reflection features to extract the code in your RequestData function. But it does this only for the RequestData function (as well as a RequestInformation and RequestUpdateExtent functions, but these aren't always needed). The converter is simply ignoring your other functions.
To get around this, try defining your sub* functions as inner functions in RequestData(), e.g., Def RequestData(): Def sub1: Do some stuff Return var Def sub2(var): Do some stuff Return newVar Def sub3(var): Do some stuff Return newVar X=sub1() Y=sub2(X) Z=sub3(Y) Do something with Z Best regards, Cory On Thu, Sep 24, 2015 at 2:39 PM, Dennis Conklin <dennis_conk...@goodyear.com > wrote: > Cory, > > > > I’m pretending to be a real programmer, so my Programmable Filter script > looks something like this: > > > > Def sub1: > > Do some stuff > > Return var > > > > Def sub2(var): > > Do some stuff > > Return newVar > > > > Def sub3(var): > > Do some stuff > > Return newVar > > > > Def RequestData(): > > X=sub1() > > Y=sub2(X) > > Z=sub3(Y) > > Do something with Z > > > > Everything except RequestData gets lost – should I just manually break > everything down and insert at the beginning of the default_values in > StringVectorProperty, or is there some way to trick it into reading the > entire script? > > > > Thanks > > > > Dennis > > > > *From:* Cory Quammen [mailto:cory.quam...@kitware.com] > *Sent:* Thursday, September 24, 2015 1:02 PM > *To:* Dennis Conklin <dennis_conk...@goodyear.com> > *Cc:* Paraview (paraview@paraview.org) <paraview@paraview.org> > *Subject:* Re: [EXT] Re: [Paraview] More Customization of Python > programmable Filter Panel > > > > Dennis, > > > > Great!
