Re: [Paraview] Tecplot binary reader failure /limitations (3.10.0)
Hi Chris. I tried to write Tecplot binary files with Tecplot 360 2009 and Tecplot 360 2010, and both saved files have the same version number #!TDV112 and they can be loaded with PV 3.10.0. But an old Tecplot binary file with the version number #!TDV71 can also be loaded with PV 3.10.0. ! So the Tecplot version number does not seem to be the problem, at least from 71 to 112. Could your original file have been corrupted ? Richard. Christopher Butler a écrit : Hi Richard, Downloaded the linux binaries again, however, I had the same issue. However, I had access to a version of tecplot (tec360 (2009)) and saved the file as an updated version. This version then loaded into Paraview. The original file had a tecplot version string of #!TDV102 compared with #!TDV112. Therefore I guess there is a limitation on the versions of tecplot files that are accepted by the reader.

Chris & Adriano, I used a binary editor to modify my Tecplot 360 2010 "*.plt" binary file and I replaced the version number TDV112 by TDV102... and I got the same error as Chris Indeed, the TDV102 version number is not understood by Paraview, although the older version number TDV71 can be loaded !

Re: [Paraview] Information Only Property Parameters
Hi Brian,
I'm not sure to understand your UI and the way the things are.
It might be overkill, but if you want to express those dependency, you
can create your own domain based on what it is filled so far so at
start only TypeList will be available, then "TypeList + DataTypeList"
and then "TypeList + DataTypeList + DataList"
Other than that, I don't know if it is possible to change the order...

I was able to get it working by using SetElement and setting the currentText
retreived from the widget. Then I called UpdateProperty on the first
combobox. Next I called UpdatePropertyInformation on the second combobox.
For the order issue, I just ended up renaming them so they followed the
order I needed.

[Paraview] QListWidget Selection Issue
I have a QListWidget that is being filled by the following XML: Everything seems to show up as expected, but I end up getting the following error: "had to make up a value for selection" How can I provide a default for the selection?
