[Paraview] How to select cells linked to selected points ?

2017-10-27 Thread LB
Hi,

I've used the Find Data dialog to select a region of interest by filtering
point data with the "is one of" criterion.
I would like to extract the corresponding region, but clicking on "extract
selection" does not extract the corresponding cells.

Is there a way to select cells linked to selected points ?


Regards,

[Paraview] Unable to run any catalyst live visualization on Mac OS

2017-10-27 Thread Jimmy .
Dear community,


Please find the following issue: 
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17752


Andrew redirected me to here. If someone with a Mac machine would be so kind to 
help me out on this, I would very much appreciate it.

Re: [Paraview] LiveInsituLink proxy in pvpython client

2017-10-27 Thread Kolja Petersen
What is meant by support services? Step-by-step guidance to solve the
problem or a complete solution?

How much would it cost if you developed a python client script that
connects to a pvserver, waits for an insitu connection and writes rendered
images of all data available from catalyst to disk for all time steps?
200$, 2000$, 2$?
Thank you

 Thank you, Andy,
 unfortunately your answer has shown me how little I understand about
 Catalyst. But maybe it leads in the right direction after some work from my
 side.

 Just to make sure that we are talking about the same thing: My pvpython
 client is supposed to automate some of the visualization functionality of
 the paraview GUI. The coprocessing.py is in charge of the other side of the
 link, namely to provide data to the visualization side, if I understand
 correctly? I rather followed what happens in the constructor
 pqLiveInsituVisualizationManager::pqLiveInsituVisualizationManager(int
 connection_port, pqServer* server), which creates a
 vtkSMLiveInsituLinkProxy, not a vtkLiveInsituLink as coprocessing.py.

 Now I saw that the vtkLiveInsituLink class can have ProcessType LIVE
 (for the visualization side? as server side object of the proxy created by
 paraview?) or INSITU (for the simulation side?). So apparently the same
 class can take both roles? If yes, that'd clarify some of my confusion. But

Re: [Paraview] LiveInsituLink proxy in pvpython client

2017-10-27 Thread Andy Bauer
Unfortunately there's no comprehensive "developing paraview" guide. It can
be used as a framework for other applications and has been designed to do
that but we haven't had any funding to work on a comprehensive guide for
that.

I haven't looked at the Live parts in depth in a while so my memory is
probably fuzzy on that and it would take a good bit of time for me to
familiarize myself with that part of the code. By murky I mean that things
get a bit confusing when you're looking at the classes for both the client,
server and in situ side. Kitware does offer support services if this is
important to get working for you.

[Paraview] Disable auto show

2017-10-27 Thread Quentin d'Avout
Hi All,



I would like to disable the auto show setting, but couldn’t find such a
setting in the settings…

When you create and apply a new filter, paraview automatically shows that
new filter in a view.

I would like to disable that.



Thanks

Quentin

What do you mean by "murkier"? Paraview also uses a proxy (to a
vtkLiveInsituLink instance either on a pvserver or on the builtin server),
not  the class itself. Do you have an easier solution (C++ or python) by
using vtkInsituLink directly?

Are there any design documents from Kitware that show the timings and
message exchange between Catalyst, pvserver and Paraview (or other
clients)? I don't know Kitware's publishing policies. My impression was
always that you are not just developing the Paraview application but also
an open source visualization programming framework. Maybe I'm wrong, but I
am missing some kind of "Paraview Programming Guide" that goes beyond a
User's Guide, to enable others understand the concepts behind Paraview and
contribute at a deeper level than just adding filters and data processing
algorithms.
Anyway, thanks for your explanations, although I couldn't make much
progress.

Re: [Paraview] Specifying filters from plugins in ParaViewWeb Visualizer proxy file

2017-10-27 Thread louise.davies
Hi Sebastien,

I’ve made it so that the plugin autoloads (and I’ve checked that the plugins 
are autoloading by selecting a reader plugin as autoload as well, and it does 
indeed allow me to open the associated filetype without me loading the plugin 
via the command line) and I still have the same result in Visualizer – the 
filter does not apply or appear in the pipeline.

Due to this, it must be how I am specifying the filter in the proxies file 
rather than the plugins not loading (I would think). What property in the 
plugin xml should I be using in my proxies json file?

Kind Regards,

Louise

Another easy approach (not great but easy), is to check that plugin in ParaView 
Qt ui as auto load and then make sure Visualizer is not started with the "-dr" 
argument.
That way, the plugin will load at start time.

3.   It’s an .mha file, looking at the file info gives “Image (Uniform

I see, I read your first email a bit too quickly.  So you do see the filter 
appear in the web ui, but it just doesn't have any effect you can see.  A few 
more questions then: 1) Is there any log output you can share? 2) what version 
of paraview are you running?  3) what filter or dataset type are you giving as 
input to the flying edges filter?

Hi Louise,

   Off the top of my head, I would think that what you are doing should work, 
but maybe Seb can chime in otherwise.  In your application server code, do you 
register the "ParaViewWebStartupPluginLoader" before the 
"ParaViewWebProxyManager"?

AcceleratedAlgorithms plugin. I want to expose the Flying Edges 3D filter in 
Visualizer. However, all of the names I can find related to the Flying Edges 3D 
filter in its .xml 
file
 (e.g. FlyingEdges3D, vtkFlyingEdges3D) do not allow me to use the filter. When 
I click on the item in the filters pane it does nothing.

Am I understanding this incorrectly? Does it work differently for filters 
loaded from plugins than from default ParaView filters?

Kind Regards,

Louise
