Re: [Paraview] new memory inspector panel documentation
Burlen The inspector is great and I've been using it extensively to monitor some of the big jobs I've run recently. It really helps knowing how much memory you've actually used on each node - and more importantly, how close you are to getting a job killed. Thanks for taking the time to contribute it.

[Paraview] ParticlePathLines Filter
Hello, in Paraview 3.98 the ParticlePathLines Filter is gone away. We use this to show the trajectory of simple particle data (x,y,z), based on ID. Is this intended ? I got it back by copy paste the proxysource from filter.xml in 3.14 (line 6679++) to 3.98. Would it be possible to add back the old ParticlePathlines Filter (with single inputsource and Pathline Particle as output) in 3.98 because I love the webGL scene export in the new Paraview.

You can use the completion in the Python shell of ParaView.

Aside: When I put in 0 (for ascii) as a third arg. to CreateWriter, pvpython complained about having more than 2 arguments. I note that in the paraview users guide, CreateWriter has several arguments in some cases. help(CreateWriter) indicates that more than 2 arguments can be used: help(CreateWriter) Help on function CreateWriter in module paraview.simple: CreateWriter(filename, proxy=None, **extraArgs) Creates a writer that can write the data produced by the source proxy in the given file format (identified by the extension). If no source is provided, then the active source is used. This doesn't actually write the data, it simply creates the writer and returns it.

I use paraview to view results, and the smoothing filter in paraview seems to do what I want. I want to start with a Trace-generated python script, and edit it to write the vertices and element info to a file (.ply would be nice) that the next code can read. So, fortunately for me (in some sense), I decided to upgrade my ubuntu OS to 12.10. This has paraview 3.14.1-6build1 on its software list (aptitude). This version corrected a bug (with pvpython) in the version of paraview 3.14 that I was using. (I also spent a day trying to get/install other versions. That was not very successful.) Now if I import the trace generated py file, it pops up (and stays). Not a very good image, but it is a start! Being new to python and paraview, this is quite a step. Any suggestions as to how to write vertex/node info would be appreciated.

[Paraview] OGG support in Paraview 3.98 rc3
Hello all, is it possible to enable OGG-support in the newest version of Paraview? There is a PARAVIEW_ENABLE_FFMPEG option for AVI-files, but I cannot find something similar for OGG-Theora.

Re: [Paraview] new memory inspector panel documentation
Sebastien, Thanks for putting it in the right place. This morning I've merged the new docs with the old in the user guide to clean it up a bit. I wasn' t sure how important having a consitent look was (eg dialogs/windows in mac style), so I left the old images in the source but commented out in case that is important to you guys.
