Re: [Paraview] Moving slice with particle

[Thorsten Hater]

Here my probably faulty python code:

slice = vtk.vtkCutter()

plane = vtk.vtkPlane()

plane.SetOrigin(0,0,0)

plane.SetNormal(0,1,0)

slice.SetCutFunction(plane)

slice.SetInput(field)

slice.Update()

out.SetFieldData(slice.GetFieldData())


The result is an empty Output Window popping up along with an empty 
output field.

the generic cutter does not work for me.
If I import paraview.simple a new connection pops up and PV itself
is messed up,
so I can't use simple's Slice. Can I work around this behaviour?

Jacob, a "clean build" typically means "make clean" or
"make distclean" before you build again with shared libs.
If these targets are not available, you may need to
remove the whole of the paraview build tree, or start
afresh in a new directory, starting from extracting the source
from the tar file.

[Paraview] problem with new representation plugin

[Paul Edwards]

Hi,

I have compiled the representation plugin in the CVS and I have the problem
that I cannot change the colour for the "Special Mapper" in the Object
Inspector's "Display" panel.  This seems to be due to the display properties
being for the surface representation rather than the wireframe (it shows
"Set Solid Color..." rather than "Set Ambient Color...").  Does anyone know
who to fix this?

Thanks in advance,
Paul

Re: [Paraview] Using data in Calculator from multiple sources

[Matthew Cragun]

I am using one mesh that is deforming in time.  So node1.mesh2 is the the
same node as node1.mesh1, just in a different location in space.

But your point is well made that if I were using unrelated meshes (i.e.
roughly similar geometry but with a different number of nodes in each mesh)
finding the closest node would be a good way to go.

Best Regards,

[Paraview] Volume reader

[Sébastien Lasserre]

Hello everyone,

I am trying to write a VTK reader to read custom volumetric data into Paraview.

I started with the example vtkImageAlgorithm
(http://www.itk.org/Wiki/VTK_Examples_vtkImageAlgorithm_Filter) and
changed it so the Filter doesn't take any input and output a
vtkImageData.

To simplify, I generate a vtkImageData with constant values in the
RequestData method of my filter and assign it to the output using
output->ShallowCopy(imageData) at the end of the method.

When I tried to use this reader as plugin in Paraview, the views
(Outline, Volume) of the data are not working because the dimension of
the vtkImageData are null.

I tried to use the same filter in a VTK code. The output has a
dimension and I can print the content of the vtkImageData. If I add a
Outline actor, I am able to see the extend of the data but if I attach
a Volume actor, I get this error during the runtime :

 terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
  what():  std::bad_alloc

If I copy the content of the output into a new vtkImageData, then I am
able to see the data using the Volume Actor and I don't get anymore
the error.

Did I forget something while declaring my filter ?

I attached the header and implementation file of my filter and the
main.cxx for the VTK test.

I am using Paraview 3.7.0 on Ubuntu 9.10.

Thanks for your help,

Sebastien

Re: [Paraview] problem with new representation plugin

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

One solution is to share common properties with the
SurfaceRepresentation sub-proxy using the  tag. You
can add exceptions (you will have to add exceptions for Input,
Representation properties at the least).

Re: [Paraview] problem with new representation plugin

[Paul Edwards]

I can't see how this is possible through the SharedProperties as the color
combo box that is displayed in the "Display Properties" is chosen from the
result of pqPipelineRepresentation::getRepresentationType()  (from the call
in pqDisplayProxyEditor.cxx line 695).  This will default to
vtkSMPVRepresentationProxy::SURFACE for all user defined representations
inheriting from SurfaceRepresentation type - really this should be checking
the subtype ID that is specified in the XML file, although I'm not quite
sure how this can be done

Can you get it to work with the example plugin?

Thanks,
Paul

[Paraview] Error in ParaView CVS Head with CMake Configuration

[Michael Jackson]

Pulled the latest CVS Head from GitHub? Is that really the latest?

 When I tried to configure ParaView with my plugins using  
PARAVIEW_EXTRA_EXTERNAL_MODULES I get the following error:


-- Plugin: IPFFilter enabled
CMake Error: File /Components/pqObjectPanelImplementation.h.in does  
not exist.
CMake Error at /Users/Shared/Kitware-CVS/ParaView/CMake/ 
ParaViewPlugins.cmake:281 (CONFIGURE_FILE):

  configure_file Problem configuring file
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  /Users/mjackson/Workspace/PVMXADataModel/Source/Client/IPFFilter/ 
CMakeLists.txt:93 (ADD_PARAVIEW_OBJECT_PANEL)


IPFFilter is my own plugin. The problem is that ParaView_QT_DIR is NOT  
defined at the point where my CMake code is executed. Looking at the  
top level CMakeLists.txt file I see that the Plugins are loaded at  
line 238 (INCLUDE(ParaViewCommon)) which then picks up my code. The  
problem is that ParaView_QT_DIR is NOT defined until line 272 in the  
top level CMakeLists.txt file. This causes problems for my external  
modules because I have Qt code that needs to be compiled.


  Is this a bug or am I just missing something?

[Paraview] Custom Filters NOT showing up in Filters List (CVS HEAD)

[Michael Jackson]

I have some custom filters that I have developed. I use the  
"PARAVIEW_EXTRA_EXTERNAL_MODULES" to compile them directly into  
ParaView. I know they are getting compiled as I can see the compile  
command go by on the command line. The problem is that they do not  
show up when I run ParaView in the filter list. Here is an example XML  
File:



  

  
  


Which is added like so in my CMake files:
# -- Add the Client side xml
set(IPFFilterClient_XML ${PVMXADataModel_SOURCE_DIR}/Source/Client/ 
IPFFilter/Resources/IPFFilter_GUI.xml)

PARAVIEW_INCLUDE_GUI_RESOURCES( "${IPFFilterClient_XML}" )

This works just fine with ParaView 3.6.2. This was a completely clean  
build.


Suggestions? Thanks.

I'll state up front that I know 3.6.2 only officially supports Qt

I'll go ahead with my bug report/question any ways.

 So I built Qt 4.6.1 with Cocoa (OS X) and then compiled ParaView  
3.6.2 from
source using shared libraries. Everything compiles fine. ParaView  
then
launches fine. I setup up some sort of pipeline (Does not matter  
what) then
the strangeness happens. For example, load up a Box source, then  
glyph it.


 Now, click on the "Glyph1" to activate it. Now, click on the  
Display tab to
adjust some parameter (Again, does not matter what). Now Click back  
on the
"Box1" in the Pipeline Browser. Now try to click on the  
"Properties" or
"Information" tabs. What happens is that the Object inspector  
windows goes

blank and the Pipeline Browser elements all become un-selected.

 It seems the only way to select a new element in the Pipeline  
browser and
have it "stick" to to actually double-click on a pipeline browser  
element.

Then you can select something in the "Object Inspector" area.

 If I build with Qt 4.6.1 with Carbon none of this happens. I will  
assume
that this is a problem with Qt itself since switching to Qt/Carbon  
seems to
fix the problem. Just wondering if anyone else has seen this  
behavior. I can
reproduce it on a Mac Pro (Xeon 5500 with ATI 4870) and a MacBook  
Pro with

nVidea 8600m graphics.

 What I have not tried is to go back to Qt 4.5.3 Cocoa/Carbon and  
try those

to see if they work/don't work.

Thanks for any feedback.

[Paraview] isosurface time series data with different value

[Gowri Somanath]

Hi
I have time series data. I want to isosurface the data with different value
for each time step - but not those in the animation which linearly
interpolates the isosurface value over time.
I want to isosurface based on max-min of the data at each time step.
How would i do it?

Re: [Paraview] Using data in Calculator from multiple sources

[Matthew Cragun]

One other question:

If I take this one step further, is it possible to send the data at the
current time step to the PPF?

For example I have a mesh deforming in time (ob1) that is being compared to
a baseline with no time data (ob2).  All of the nodes are similar.  After
looking at some of the previous threads, it looks like I can access the data
for the temporal set with:

 ob1 = self.GetInputDataObject(0,0).GetTimeStep(0)
 ob2 = self.GetinputDataObject(0,1)
 some calculation of ob1.t0 and ob2

This hasn't seemed to work quite right however, as Paraview 3.6.2 doesn't
recognize the "GetTimeStep()" portion.  Are there any suggestions?

Also, in the end I would like to animate this.  Each time step, I would like
the PPF to update to the current time step.  So is it possible to say
something equivalent to:

 ob1 = self.GetInputDataObject(0,0).GetCurrentTimeStep()
 ob2 = self.GetinputDataObject(0,1)
 some calculation of ob1.tcurrent and ob2

Are there any recommended documentation resources for the Python api
available in the PPF?

Thanks,

Matt

Re: [Paraview] Error in ParaView CVS Head with CMake Configuration

[Michael Jackson]

That seems to have fixed that problem.

Would also be nice if the macro "paraview_build_optional_plugin" was  
in the ParaViewPlugins.cmake file as I have to recreate it in each of  
my Plugins CMake files because the macro is located in ParaView/ 
Plugins/CMakeLists.txt

Ok phew, I was not crazy. I can't reproduce it with sources, but here are
two files:
http://www.rpi.edu/~doriad/Paraview_List/wiggle/

Here is the procedure:

1) Load both files
2) color sparse.vtp pink
3) If dense.vtp is toggled on and off, the behavior is correct.
4) If sparse.vtp is toggled on and off, the other data set (dense.vtp)
moves.

Can someone take a look/verify this?

Thanks,

David

Re: [Paraview] Enabling dataset visibility wiggles camera

[pat marion]

I can repeat it with sources.

I think it might just be an opengl aliasing effect.  The points only seem to
move by 1 pixel (but when they all move at once, you definitely see the
wiggle).  If you another object to the scene, like a cone source, it
doesn't move at all.


To repeat:

create point source, set to 1000 points and radius 100, set representation
to outline.
create 2nd point source, set to 1000 points and radius to 10
hide the first pointset and click reset camera
now toggle visibility on/off of first pointset

Re: [Paraview] Enabling dataset visibility wiggles camera

[pat marion]

Also, I loaded your sparse.vtp and dense.vtp files into another vtk based
application, and there is no movement, so it's either a paraview bug or
paraview is using a different representation/mapper than my app.

Actually, the wiggle much more extreme the more the radii vary.  Try with
radius 10 and radius 10,000, produces a really big jump.

[Paraview] Suggestion for Storing Colors for a Polygonal Mesh

[Michael Jackson]

I am in the early stages of designing a new filter that is supposed to  
color triangles based on their normal where the normal is used as an  
input to the filter and a unique color is output for each triangle.


  My questions are:
   Where should I store the color information? As a new set of  
"Scalars" or as Vectors as attribute data for the cells? Also, is  
there a "Standard" that is used to store the Normals for Polygonal  
data (vtkPolyData)? Are they always in an attribute data array called  
"Normals"? I was thinking I need to check first to see if the correct  
type of normals are included already and if not then generate the  
normals during the filter.


Thanks for any help or suggestions.
