[Paraview] plot over line
How does one "plot over line" if the line is curved in x,y,z? I would like to plot pressure over a curved line in a x-y plane. I tried: 1-using the calculator to compute the arc length but the plot options remain lines in x or y or z (no arc length is added). 2-I tried exporting, I get the x,y, z coordinates to process outside of PV but the pressure does not get written. Any ideas?

[Paraview] Plot over line
Hello all, I would like to use a plot over line filter where the line is defined by two nodes on the mesh, which move in time, rather than defining the line with two fixed spacial points. Is it possible to do this with the POL filter as is, or will this require some extra scripting?

Re: [Paraview] plot over line
Hello, I had a similar problem in which was looking to plot the pressure on the surface of a tube in a flow. The way I did it was to Extract Block -> Connectivity -> Scatter plot. The only problem with this was that it plotted starting at 120 degrees and also I have the pressure over top and bottom overlaying each other, kind of like it is plotted against x instead of along surface. It is also possible to plot along a contour by selecting the points along a contour and extracting selection and scatter plot. Note, I have so far been looking only at 2D sets of data but I am sure can be used for 3D by taking a slice. If I didn't include the Connectivity when extracting block it still plotted however it jumped around the circle, which I think may be something to do with my original mesh. So I haven't quite got it doing what I want and look forward to when plots along curved lines are available, if anyone else has any advice it would be welcome. Just to say it is also possible to open new viewer window with spreadsheet and select extarcted selection or contour from drop down and then save this as a .csv file which can easily be read plenty of other programs such as Matlab for further data analysis. -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stephen Wornom Sent: 25 November 2008 09:38 To: Berk Geveci Cc: paraview@paraview.org Subject: Re: [Paraview] plot over line Berk Geveci wrote: > Hi Stephen, > > This is a feature we are looking at implementing for the next release. > Just a question though, how did you generate the line? > extract surface -> connectivity filter -> threshold filter + slice in z Stephen > -berk > > On Thu, Nov 20, 2008 at 5:29 AM, Stephen Wornom > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> How does one "plot over line" if the line is curved in x,y,z? >> I would like to plot pressure over a curved line in a x-y plane. >> >> I tried: >> 1-using the calculator to compute the arc length but the plot options >> remain lines in x or y or z (no arc length is added). >> 2-I tried exporting, I get the x,y, z coordinates to process outside >> of PV but the pressure does not get written. >> Any ideas? >> Stephen >> >> -- >> [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> 2004 route des lucioles - BP93 >> Sophia Antipolis >> 06902 CEDEX >> >> Tel: 04 92 38 50 54 >> Fax: 04 97 15 53 51 >> >> >> ___ >> ParaView mailing list >> ParaView@paraview.org >> http://www.paraview.org/mailman/listinfo/paraview >> >> >> > ___ > ParaView mailing list > ParaView@paraview.org > http://www.paraview.org/mailman/listinfo/paraview > -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2004 route des lucioles - BP93 Sophia Antipolis 06902 CEDEX Tel: 04 92 38 50 54 Fax: 04 97 15 53 51 No virus found in this incoming message.

[Paraview] Plot over Line source
Hey there
I have some hundred VTU files and I want to plot some data in a graph (Plot
over Line - POL) next to it. The Problem is, the data from these POLs is
coming from a simple log file, basically conaining only x and y values
(like two np.arrays).
I can transform the arrays via
from vtk.util import numpy_support
values = np.array((x,y))
vtk_values = numpy_support.numpy_to_vtk(values, array_type=vtk.VTK_FLOAT)
vtk_values.setName('values_2_show')
vtk_values.setComponentName(1, 'x_value')
vtk_values.setComponentName(2, 'y_value')
But so far I have no success with how to change the input (source)
VTUFILE = FindSource('VTUFILE*')
plotOverLine1 = PlotOverLine(Input=VTUFILE, Source='High Resolution
Line Source')
to a simple array.
Thanks for any help!
Richard

Re: [Paraview] Plot over line
Colin, A not necessarily straight forward way is to use the Warp filter to remove the mesh motion (assumes you have the displacement vector as a point value in your datum set). Then the POL Filter end-points remain fixed with respect to the two nodes over which you initially placed the end-points. However, implicit in this approach is that the POL Filter's line is a material line and deforms with the material, probably not remaining a straight line as the time (or loading) progresses. It may or may not be the result for which you are looking?

Re: [Paraview] Plot over line
Hi Samuel, thanks for the response. My line is on a boundary which remains a strait line so there is no worry of the line becoming curved. My data set contains mesh node points which are fixed in time, along with the nodal displacements which give the deformed configuration when the warp filter is applied. I can do what you describe but this will give me the POL of the undeformed configuration. What I want to do here is get a plot over line on the warped mesh, since I need to compute an integral along the warped edge.

[Paraview] plot over line in 2D
Hello! I'm trying to extract the data from a line of my 2D dataset, using the probeline filter. The Z range of my domain is from 0 to 0. Extracting a line with z1=z2=0, the data at the ends of the line are not realistic, or rather they remain constant at the ends of the line extracted. Modifyng the z range of the line (i.e. z1=-0.1 and z2=0.1), tha part of the line where the data are constant is reduced. Does someone know how to avoid this problem? Thanks in advice for ypur attention, Michele ___ ParaView mailing list ParaView@paraview.org http://www.paraview.org/mailman/listinfo/paraview
Re: [Paraview] Plot over Line source
Hi Richard,
You won't be able to set a vtkDataArray subclass as the input to a
PlotOverLine filter. Instead, you should read the log files in a
Programmable Source, and connect the Programmable Source to the
PlotOverLine filter.
See Chapter 13 of the ParaView Guide [1].
Hope that helps,
Cory

Re: [Paraview] Plot over Line source
Hi Richard,
If you don't mind, let's keep the discussion on the list so that others may
benefit from the discussion.
Outputting a vtkTable is the right thing to do. What I suspect is happening
with the first error message is that if you execute a programmable source
with the output set to one type of data set (e.g., vtkPolyData), there is a
bug that doesn't let you switch to a different type of output. As a
workaround, you can create a new Programmable Source, copy and paste your
code from the original Programmable Source into the new one, and set the
output type to vtkTableData *before* you click Apply.
To view line plots of your data, you'll need to create a Line Chart View by
splitting the 3D Render View. To do this, look for the icon on the top
right of the 3D Render View that has two vertically-oriented rectangles
side by side (tool tip "Split Horizontal"). In the list of views that comes
up, click on "Line Chart View". If your line plots are not visible right
away, you will need to make them visible by clicking on the eye icon next
to the Programmable Source. Voila, you should have a line plot.
Hope that helps,
Cory

vtkGeometryRepresentation(4FAC3570) is of type vtkTable, but a
vtkDataSet is required.
for the code I am using:
import numpy as np
switching_log = 'C:\\Users\\raphael\\Desktop\\logs

class DataFile(object):
def __init__(self, filename, h_xyz, m_xyz):

self._h_xyz = h_xyz
self._m_xyz = m_xyz
def read_dat_file(self):
data = np.genfromtxt(self._filename, delimiter='', \
usecols=(0, self._h_xyz, self._m_xyz), unpack=True)
return data
log = DataFile(switching_log, 9, 13)
data = log.read_dat_file()
A = np.rec.fromarrays(data, dtype= {'names': ['Time', 'Hx', 'Mx'],
'formats':['int','f8', 'f8']})
print A.dtype.names
for name in A.dtype.names:
array = A[name]
output.RowData.append(array, name)
Now I could use the "vtkMultiBlockSet" or "vtkPolyData" as output
DataSet, but then I get:
Traceback (most recent call last):

line 121, in __getattr__
return getattr(self.VTKObject, name)
AttributeError: RowData
Because output.rowdata needs a vtkTable. I found the vtkTable in the
Paraview Guide in Chapter 13.2.1 "Reading a CSV" file - which is basically
my thing, but I dont exactly understand where the difference between the
example and my situation lies ...

Re: [Paraview] Plot over Line source
Hi Richard,
Please keep your replies on the list with a "reply-all". Someone else may
have a similar question as you (or better yet, an answer) and this may come
in handy in a future search of the list serve.
I'm not sure how to annotate the position on the graph as you seek to do as
there is no mechanism for this. You could perhaps hack this in by creating
another column in your table where all the values are zero except for the
time that you are showing. Setting this column to the maximum of your
plotted y values in the row at the time you are showing would result in an
almost vertical line showing up at the time you are displaying if your data
samples in x are dense enough.
HTH,

One last question: Line Chart != PlotOverLine, so its hard for me to
plot x and y axis, or like in my script mx over hx, as nothing happens when
I choose to use one of my coordinates as "X-Axis Parameter" and just let
the other one being drawn.
Can't I make a real Plot over Line?
Thanks again for your time!

Re: [Paraview] Plot over Line source
Hey Cory
Thanks for the tip with the array [(0,0,0) (0,0,0),
(x,y,time),(0,0,0)...(0,0,0)] While this was easy to do, I still get a
point in Paraview at 0/0 for each time, or, if I choose to draw a line, one
that starts at 0/0 - which is kind of understandable, when looking at my
table, which is 0 everywhere but on one point. Can you give me another hint
on how to proceed? I only want PV to draw ONE point at (x,y)...
Thanks

Re: [Paraview] Plot over Line source
Richard,
I understand. Sorry, I don't think there is a way to do this.
Having an annotation mechanism for your use case might be something we can
do in the future, but there are currently no plans to do this that I know
of.

Re: [Paraview] plot over line question (save data)
Stephen,
There is no built-in solution as far as I know, but the following pipeline may
serve as a guideline:
* Apply ’Extract Block’ and ’Merge Blocks’ filter for a multi-block data set
* Apply Programmable Filter with the following Python source code:
inp = self.GetInput()
filename = "foo.csv"
FILE = open(filename, "w")
FILE.write("x,y,z, x-velocity\n")
numPoints = inp.GetNumberOfPoints()
vel = inp.GetPointData().GetArray("velocity")
for i in xrange(0, numPoints):
coords = inp.GetPoint(i)[:3]
FILE.write(str(coords[0]) + ",")
FILE.write(str(coords[1]) + ",")
FILE.write(str(coords[2]) + ",")
FILE.write(str(vel.GetValue(i * 3)) + "\n")
FILE.close()

Re: [Paraview] Plot over line, averaged over time.
"Temporal Statistics" --> "Plot Over Line" should do the trick, however, for the entire 500 timesteps. We don't have an easy mechanism to limit it to last 100 timesteps. However, it's just a matter of writing a filter to do that (similar to "Temporal Shift Scale").

Yes. Open the view settings for the plot view (that button on the thin toolbar
right above the view, third from the left). Click on Left Axis -> Layout, then
select Specify the Axis Range and set the Axis Range to what you want it fixed
to.

[Paraview] Plot over line CSV export python script not working
Hello everybody,
I've been using Paraview for quite a long time but I didn't need the python
scripting up to now.
I want to execute a series of plot over line in numerous points and
different time steps so it is nothing
I can afford to do manually.
Looking on the net I was able to find out how to record a macro and how to
create a writer so I
ended up with this script:
try: paraview.simple
except: from paraview.simple import *
paraview.simple._DisableFirstRenderCameraReset()
fotobioreattore_foam = GetActiveSource()
PlotOverLine2 = PlotOverLine( Source="High Resolution Line Source" )
PlotOverLine2.Source.Point1 = [-0.03511841783524, -0.03509980067610741,
0.0]
PlotOverLine2.Source.Point2 = [0.03511841783524, 0.03511841783524,
0.430071525574]
DataRepresentation7 = Show()
PlotOverLine2.Source.Point1 = [-0.0, 0.0, 0.0]
PlotOverLine2.Source.Point2 = [0.0, 0.0, 0.430071525574]
XYChartView4 = GetRenderView()
DataRepresentation7.XArrayName = 'arc_length'
DataRepresentation7.SeriesVisibility = ['U (0)', '0', 'U (1)', '0', 'U (2)',
'0', 'vtkValidPointMask', '0', 'arc_length', '0', 'Points (0)', '0', 'Points
(1)', '0', 'Points (2)', '0', 'Points (Magnitude)', '0']
DataRepresentation7.UseIndexForXAxis = 0
Render()
#= create writer
source = PlotOverLine2 #PlotOverLine2.Source
writer = CreateWriter("/home/piota/csv.csv", source)
#writer = CreateWriter("/home/piota/csv.csv")
writer.FieldAssociation = "Points" # or "Cells"
writer.UpdatePipeline()
del writer
--
If I'm not mistaken, this should write a csv.csv file in my home folder but
it doesn't write anything. No error is reported when I run the script but
still I get no output.
I'm still a bit confused on which source I should specify, so I'm pretty
sure that the writer part is incorrect.
Can somebody help me filling it out properly?
Thx in advance.
Luca

Re: [Paraview] Plot over line CSV export python script not working
If you're running the python script in the paraview gui sometimes the messages are printed out to the python shell. What version of paraview are you using? I'm running paraview from the head of the repo.

Re: [Paraview] Plot over line CSV export python script not working
Andy, thank you for your quick reply. I am using Paraview 3.8.0 which is the latest binary in the Ubuntu repos. I chose to install that without compiling from source as I was rushing (I know, it sounds weird... but). Do you believe that the problem is build-related? However, reading the errors that you get I don't see anything that I can visualize in my output which is as follows (Python shell) Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/paraview/site-packages/paraview/servermanager.py", line 2922, in _proxyDefinitionsUpdated if vtkSMObject.GetProxyManager().GetProxyDefinitionsUpdated(): AttributeError: GetProxyDefinitionsUpdated Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/paraview/site-packages/paraview/servermanager.py", line 2922, in _proxyDefinitionsUpdated if vtkSMObject.GetProxyManager().GetProxyDefinitionsUpdated(): AttributeError: GetProxyDefinitionsUpdated Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/paraview/site-packages/paraview/servermanager.py", line 2922, in _proxyDefinitionsUpdated if vtkSMObject.GetProxyManager().GetProxyDefinitionsUpdated(): AttributeError: GetProxyDefinitionsUpdated Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/paraview/site-packages/paraview/servermanager.py", line 2922, in _proxyDefinitionsUpdated if vtkSMObject.GetProxyManager().GetProxyDefinitionsUpdated(): AttributeError: GetProxyDefinitionsUpdated Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 17, in File "/usr/lib/paraview/site-packages/paraview/servermanager.py", line 201, in __setattr__ "to add this attribute.") AttributeError: Attribute XArrayName does not exist. This class does not allow addition of new attributes to avoid mistakes due to typos. Use add_attribute() if you really want to add this attribute. It looks like a complain about the server, not about my script though in fact, if comment out the writer part, leaving only the "trace" recorded set of operations, it spits out the very same error. Moreover, the Paraview output doesn't show any output at all (except for the usual a complain about the qt4 that is not related). Do you see any evident problem in the script syntax in the writer section? For example references to the wrong source, etc? Or do you believe that it is a problem related to the Paraview/Python installation (or whatever..). Another point does the "PlotOverLine2" influence the results? I recorded the trace making a second POL that automatically got labeled as #2... if I run it at startup it executes perfectly fine so I don't think that the problem is here too.

Re: [Paraview] Plot over line CSV export python script not working
Ok, I moved on a little. Reading the output of the error reported in the previous mail, it says that it cannot find "XArrayName". Looking the original script you can see that it is needed for the definition of the plot area properties in the GUI I don't need it as I only want a csv file, so I commented out everything in that section. Running the script again it now complains about being unable to find "CreateWriter". I need this to write the csv file so this error becomes fatal. As this function should be included in the paraview.simple that I load at the beginning of the script (like explained in the manual), what I did was to go through all the functions in the simple.py file to locate it. Without any succes. Then I went on with the brute-force approach and lauched: grep -H -r "CreateWriter" /usr Binary file /usr/lib/paraview/libvtkPVFilters.so matches Binary file /usr/lib/paraview/libvtkPVServerManager.so matches Binary file /usr/lib/paraview/libvtkIO.so.pv3.8 matches Binary file /usr/lib/paraview/libvtkPVServerManagerPythonD.so matches Binary file /usr/lib/paraview/libpqApplicationComponents.so matches Binary file /usr/lib/paraview/libvtkIO.so matches Unfortunately they are all bin files and not py... I'm starting to believe that I'm really missing something here. Any idea? Thx!!!

Re: [Paraview] Plot over line CSV export python script not working
I think the first problem is that there isn't an active source. The GetActiveSource() is returning None and when you create subsequent filters that automatically connect to the active source it causes problems when you try to execute the pipeline. Something along the lines of below should get you closer: = try: paraview.simple except: from paraview.simple import * paraview.simple._DisableFirstRenderCameraReset() Wavelet() p = PlotOverLine() p.Source.Point1 = [-.5, -5., -5.] p.Source.Point2 = [.5, 5., 5.] w = CSVWriter() w.FileName = "/home/piota/csv.csv" w.UpdatePipeline() = The problem here is that the output of PlotOverLine is a polydata and the writer is expecting a vtkTable. I'm not sure how to convert between the two. Maybe someone else can help you with that. The 2 things I'd try at this point are either creating my own writer using the python programmable filter or writing out a polydata file and parsing that for the information that you need. The first one is probably the better choice of the two. Andy On Fri, Sep 30, 2011 at 12:47 AM, Luca Giannelli wrote: > Ok, > > I moved on a little.

Re: [Paraview] Plot over line CSV export python script not working
Thank you very much Andy,
with your precious help I have been able to find out a working solution for
what I need.
I foud out the the original script is completly functional without any
modification
the only BIG ISSUE was the the Paraview binaries provided by the Ubuntu
Repositories
do not provide all the needed python scripts for the execution of a perfect
python environment
in Paraview. I would like to notify this to the mantainers of the repos.
So, the workaround was this easy! I just installed Paraview from the latest
source and got
the thing running.
However I found another problem relatet of course to the execution of the
pipeline due to
the missing active source, just as you suggested in you mail. That was
easier to solve.
So I ended up with a working script I want to share with all those people
that may need it.
I'll send an heavily commented version with a dedicated email. Here is a
snippet just to let you
see how i did.
Thank you very much for your time!
