Regarding Ken’s third answer, here is a document on VTK file formats. It is old, but I believe still up to date.

I will try to answer them. “I want to use the 3d text on the surface but it is inverted.” It sounds like you are looking at your text from the back. Try moving the camera around to the front. You can also click the toolbar button marked “-Z” (2nd row near the right). That should place the camera where the text is forward. “moreover I don’t know how to write it directly on the program” In the properties panel there is an editable box labeled “Text”. Change that and then hit the “Apply” button to change the text. “what does this mean?” That definitely looks like part of a data file in what is called the legacy VTK format. However, a large part of the file is missing, so that data will not load correctly. -Ken From: ParaView <paraview-boun...@paraview.org<mailto:paraview-boun...@paraview.org>> on behalf of Marwen Gammar <mgam...@outlook.fr<mailto:mgam...@outlook.fr>> Date: Thursday, April 21, 2016 at 8:20 AM To: "paraview@paraview.org<mailto:paraview@paraview.org>" <paraview@paraview.org<mailto:paraview@paraview.org>> Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] 3d text problem Hello Miss, Mister, I am beginning in the utilisation of the software Paraview and have some problem with its use: I want to use the 3d text on the surface but it is inverted, moreover i don't know how to write it directly on the programm (vtk), and what does this means?: POINT_DATA 8 SCALARS sample_scalars float 1 LOOKUP_TABLE my_table 0.0 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0 7.0 LOOKUP_TABLE my_table 8 0.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 1.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 0.0 1.0 0.0 0.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 0.0 1.0 1.0 0.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 Could you please indicate me how to solve those problems?
