Re: [Paraview] some ui issues
Dear Burlen, Thank you for your comments. It does not look like the Xdmf reader has any custom panel methods. It does, however, have some logic which caches file-data characteristics before-after RequestInformation(), which might be wrong-footing state file loading? ( Utilities/Xdmf2/vtk/vtkXdmfReader.h:169 ) This is pure speculation on my part also :) The effect I am seeing is similar to yours - repeated clicking between pipeline browser filter selections causes Xdmf loader to go from OK to modified state, or state loading brings it in as modified. -Ian You mention ver 3.14 and loading state files. so to me it sounds likely to be a different bug. if the xdmf reader makes use of the new properties panel it may have been fixed. All of this is pure speculation on my part. Kyle is the authority.

[Paraview] Extending PythonManager to execute script from memory buffer rather than file (patch supplied)
I would like to request Extending pqPythonManager to execute pvpython from memory buffer rather than exlusively from an external file (patch supplied as at http://paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=13456 ). Why? Within other plugins, filters, C++ programs, can be helpful to execute some small script. Currently, such small script must first be written to file, then executed, then removed. I'd like to ask for comments, if this seems a good idea or not, - I've found it helpful in custom plugin development. -- Best regards, Ianmailto:i...@acm.org ___ 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] Data directory in pvsm files
Hello Utkarsh, Mohamad, Note we have supplied a working patch at: http://www.paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=13092 which includes arbitrary environment variable support in pvsm paths: where environment can be reference using syntax of %VAR_NAME%, ${VAR_NAME} and $VAR_NAME. In the latest case ($VAR_NAME), VAR_NAME must be from [a-zA-Z0-9_-]+ language. so full absolute paths can be replaced with: Property name=FileName id=2875.FileName number_of_elements=1 Element index=0 value=${MY_DATA}/interesting_result.vtk/ We are using it in deployed production projects. -Ian Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 9:32:20 PM, you wrote: It's not possible currently, but I think we should provide some clean solution for the next release. Mind reporting a feature request on the bug tracker (can't remember if there's on already)? Utkarsh On Tue, Jul 17, 2012 at 4:06 AM, Mohamad M. Nasr-Azadani mmn...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I have a simple question. Is it possible to assign an environment variable to define data directory in pvsm files? As I save a pvsm file, I see that paraview uses the complete directory address to add files to the pvsm file. I was wondering if there is a way to define that? Or, an alternative question is, is there anyway for paraview just to write the file names (and not the corresponding full directory)? That way, we can run the pvsm file in any directory as long as all the data files are in the current directory where the pvsm file is stored.

[Paraview] OpenFoam reader native built-in or plugin version differences
Title: OpenFoam reader native built-in or plugin version differences Dear ParaView OpenFoam users: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Contrib_Parallelized_Native_OpenFOAM_Reader_for_ParaView current SVN source is configured as a plugin, has extra buttons (Watch, Rescale), however only mentions working with ParaView 3.10/11. Meanwhile, ParaView 3.14.1 ( current GIT) has built-in OpenFoam reader (without Watch, Rescale). So, which one is most up to date? Which one loads the most recent OpenFoam meshes? Is the plugin ported to 3.14.1? -- Best regards, Ian mailto:i...@acm.org ___ 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
[Paraview] [ParaView] mapping PipelineSource with vtkActor names solution
Title: [ParaView] mapping PipelineSource with vtkActor names solution Regarding resolving meaningful actor names in 3D views, I'd like to propose adding a 1-line addition to: ParaViewCore/ClientServerCore/vtkGeometryRepresentation.h line 185: vtkPVLODActor* GetActor(){return Actor;} This will give plugin developers the minimum required handle to make the name mapping work. Why do we need it? To capture pipeline filter names for external scenegraph systems, such as PDF3D, VRML, etc. This change is already tested and working in the lab. Further Details are recorded in: http://www.paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=13087 including sample code on how this change can be used. -- Best regards, Ian mailto:i...@acm.org ___ 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
