Re: [Paraview] Determine ParaView installation directory in Windows
Thank you Robert, it works for me! Currently it's an experimental minor feature in the application, so I don't care if there are multiple installations of ParaView.

David E DeMarle wrote: GPU drivers are frequently buggy. It is one of the reasons why they come out so frequently. Thank you for the answer. So the GPU rule seems to be: "When you have got a good driver for LIC, please don't update it!" :D These are not good news for people depending on system administrators who may have planned periodic GPU updates (although the period between two updates may be very long!) and may have other priorities than searching for the best driver to make a given software run, especially if this is only for a few number of more or less obsolete workstations. This promises again sweat, blood an tears for some poor LIC users... :D But indeed, LIC is a great plugin. I got some pretty pictures on some workstations and on my home computer (with a good driver!). The LIC developers have made a good job, and I hope they will be able to increase its robustness in the future releases. -- Richard GRENON ONERA Departement d'Aerodynamique Appliquee - DAAP/ACI 8 rue des Vertugadins 92190 MEUDON - FRANCE phone : +33 1 46 73 42 17 fax : +33 1 46 73 41 46 mailto:richard.gre...@onera.fr http://www.onera.fr ___ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.paraview.org/mailman/listinfo/paraview

Re: [Paraview] Problems with Surface LIC
Hi all. I have often read here that reverting to older GPU drivers solves LIC problems. Updating a GPU driver is supposed to improve the GPU performance. So if you have a driver that makes LIC work, I am wondering why LIC may fail when updating to the newest GPU drivers? Are those newest drivers some beta versions, or does LIC use some OpenGL features that are considered as obsolete by the GPU developpers ?
