[Paraview] just an observation--resample with dataset filter

in the "for what it's worth" file: is it just me or does the "Resample with Dataset" filter in paraview have the "Input" & "Source" items backwards from the vtkProbe documentation. looking at the Resources/filters.xml it looks backwards there too. the "Input" is tied to the SetSource command and

Thanks for the help. I also tried suggestions from Paul, Ken, and Berk, but it does seem that I'm stuck right now unless I provide ParaView with more information. Since streamlines are computed correctly on the current multiblock mesh I just generated the mesh on a single processor and use

You may want to be clipping the surface, not the feature edges (which should be just lines where the mesh bends sharply). MergeBlocks->Clean to Grid->ExtractSurface->Clip -Ken On 3/30/09 2:11 AM, "Paul Edwards" wrote: Hi Chris, Use the "Clean to Grid" filter to merge all the duplicate point

I've never seen that before. My blind guess is that for some reason the spatial bounds of the data are not being computed correctly. If your point data had global ids, that would probably skip the section of code giving the warning. Whether that would stop the actual crash, I don't know. -Ken

InsertNextValue will work just fine so long as you are careful about inserting all the components for each tuple. Most of the time I would recommend using InsertNextTupleValue instead. However, in either case before filling the array I recommend calling Allocate first so that the memory will a

Hey David, Are you sure you don't have a bunch of duplicate points? If you run the "Clean" (vtkCleanPolyData) filter to merge coincident points, it looks more like there are only normals on one side or the other for each point (but they're not all on the same side of the surface). -Eric

As far as "enumerating files' goes, ParaView does indeed group files together based on some patterns irrespective of the file extensions. So it should work fine for *.custom files. One advantage of using a collection file (such as pvd) over just a raw file series is that it's possible to specify ti

Hi Zhigao, If you are writing a reader or filter that returns a multi-block data set you can name a block with the following: MULTI_BLOCK_DATA_SET->GetMetaData(BLOCK_NUMBER)->Set(vtkCompositeDataSet::NAME(), "PUT_NAME_HERE"); If you are just using ParaView you can use the "Extract Block" filter
