Re: [Paraview] Connecting points
Hi, Please keep the discussions on the mailing list so that everyone that wants to see what was discussed can. https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Data_formats#CSV_.28Comma_Separated_Variable.29_files has information on reading in a csv file into ParaView. From this though you will still need to convert this information into points and then add cells as needed. The ParaView User's Guide is available at https://www.paraview.org/paraview-guide/ and should be able to give you more guidance on what you want to do.

Re: [Paraview] Connecting points
Hi, ParaView has line cells which is what you probably want to use. The line cells themselves have no concept of cross section but you can add that as field data. Beyond this, how are you getting your points into ParaView? Wherever that is being done you'll probably want to add in the line cells at that point in your workflow. Another option is using the Python Programmable Filter to make those cells -- see https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Python_Programmable_Filter.

[Paraview] Connecting points with line
Hello, I am new using the paraview software. I would like to ask if you can help me with connecting points with line. I opened my .csv file and made table to points. That just shown me points in 3D view. Can you give me please tutor how to connect them?

Re: [Paraview] Connecting points with line
If you use the Programmable Filter you can connect the points with the following script: pdi = self.GetPolyDataInput() pdo = self.GetPolyDataOutput() numPoints = pdi.GetNumberOfPoints() pdo.Allocate() for i in range(0, numPoints-1): points = [i, i+1] # VTK_LINE is 3 pdo.InsertNextCell(3, 2, points) On Tue, Mar 18, 2014 at 2:10 PM, Patrik Blahuta patrik.blah...@gmail.comwrote: Hello, I am new using the paraview software.

Re: [Paraview] Connecting points with line
Hi Patrik, Please keep the discussion on the mailing list so that everyone can participate. As for connecting points via a line cell, I don't think there's any filter to do that since it would have to make an assumption about which points should be connected by a line cell. To use my recommendation, after the Table To Points filter, select the Programmable Filter, enter that text into the Script entry widget and hit apply. What it does is connect the first point to the second point, the second point to the third point, ..., and finally the second to last point to the last point. If you have some different way you want to connect the points you can change the script yourself. Note though that this filter may not work as desired in parallel.

Re: [Paraview] Connecting points with line
Hi Patrik, You need to specify what columns in your table from your csv file correspond to the point coordinates for your points. If you look at the information tab you should be able to see how many points have been created by the Table to Points filter.
