Hi Yvan, Another option is just to compute it yourself. The reason that the global min and max aren't know in Catalyst is that it requires communication but many times the value isn't needed so in order to make Catalyst more efficient it doesn't compute that value for you automatically. In the Python scripts you can import mpi4py or import vtk and use the vtkMultiProcessController to do the global operation. Note that for my way you'll need to call UpdatePipeline(datadescription.GetTime()) before getting the output and globally determining the value. Then you can set the isosurfaces values array with that information.
If you try this out and have issues, please let us know and we can go from there.
