Re: [Paraview] Crash occurs after clicking "File" then "Open"

2017-03-28 Thread Cory Quammen

Roman,

Thanks for reporting back. It looks like I need to handle some errors
conditions in ParaView better.

I have reported this issue at
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17310

Re: [Paraview] Crash occurs after clicking "File" then "Open"

2017-03-28 Thread Roman Kowch

Hi Cory,

Thanks for your solution! I found that ParaView crashed when I had a volume
mounted that belonged to another user on the Mac workstation, and that
volume denied me access. For example, if I tried:

ls -l /Volumes

the error stream shows "ls: volume_name: Permission denied" for each volume
denying me access. After unmounting those volumes, ParaView was able to
open files normally.

Thanks,
Roman

Re: [Paraview] How do you "see" FieldData

2017-03-28 Thread Scott, W Alan

Thanks Ken - really good explanation.  I have never understood global data, I 
think I do now.

Subject: RE: [Paraview] How do you "see" FieldData

The Exodus II file format has the concept of "global data." When this is read 
into ParaView/VTK, it gets placed into what vtkDataSet calls the "field data." 
Because of this, I tend to use the two interchangeably (and likewise so does 
the ParaView GUI). Personally, I prefer the term "global data" as it is more 
descriptive.

Arrays in global/field data can be whatever you want and whatever size you 
want. For example, someone might want to record the total volume of the data 
set. That could reasonably be stored in the global/field data. Another example 
might be that someone wants to record the time at which a particular event 
occurs. This could be stored in the global/field data as an array of marked 
time indices. As you can see, global/field data can mean pretty much whatever 
you want it to mean, so you can't do much with it unless you understand the 
semantics. Consequently, global/field data is mostly ignored by ParaView.

One thing that we have encountered with simulations at Sandia is that the 
simulation might track some global information, such as the mean of a field, 
and append that value to an array in the global data every time a timestep is 
written out. Thus, you end up with a global/field data array of length equal to 
the number of timesteps. The Plot Global Data Over Time filter addresses this 
use case and only this use case.

If you want to compute a value and then plot how that value changes over time, 
your best approach is to write that value out to a table and then use Plot 
Selection Over Time to plot the value.

OK, looking at your reply, I think I have a fundamental misunderstanding, and 
have been mixing up terms.  What is a "global data" and "field data"?  What's 
the difference?

I think you are saying that if we have 43 timesteps (can.exo), any global 
arrays will have 43 entries (such as time or atmospheric pressure).  However, 
field data will have a single entry (such as Title)?  Below, you are setting - 
and resetting - the field data over and over again?

Subject: RE: [Paraview] How do you "see" FieldData

I don't think Plot Global Variables Over Time works the way you think it does. 
This filter assumes that the global arrays contain a static array the same size 
as the number of time steps and then plots that with the time array on the x 
axis and the entries in this array in the y axis. If the size of the global 
variable does not equal the number of time steps, the view will show nothing.

I think you really want to use Plot Selection Over Time. That you can give a 
value and it will iterate the pipeline over time and compute the value for each 
time step. Unfortunately, it looks like the filter is broken for selections on 
field data. It works, however, on table data, so you can write the result as 
that.

I got what I think you want using the can data set. Here are the steps I used:

1. Load can.ex2. All variables. Apply.
2. Add the Programmable Filter. Set the output type to vtkTable (!) and use the 
following script:
disp_y = inputs[0].PointData["DISPL"][:,1]
mean_disp = mean(disp_y)
output.RowData.append(mean_disp, "MEAN_DISP")
3. Select the single row shown in the spreadsheet that pops up.
4. Add Plot Selection Over Time filter. Apply.

Hi,

I was able to reproduce this issue with a data set that Alex shared
privately with me (but is ok to share publicly). I've created a bug report (
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17333).

Cheers,

ps. Alex: I've cc'ed the list so that others can follow the issue.

[Paraview] Switching time steps when running parallel

2017-03-28 Thread Stief, Alexander

I am using the ensight gold file format for transient results.
When running Paraview in parallel mode (Auto MPI), I am unable to load any time 
step except the first one.
Trying to load a different time step results in the error message:


ERROR: In

When I try the same without Auto MPI enabled it works perfectly. It is just 
that I would like to use Auto MPI because it speeds up the filters a lot.
I tried with versions 5.2.0 and 5.3.0.
