Thanks Jerome and Ken. In my case, the Jerome's tip didn't work as the cube itself was rotating while transforming. I will try the work around suggested by Ken and see how it goes. Many thanks for the tips. Sreejith On Mon, Oct 26, 2009 at 5:19 PM, Moreland, Kenneth wrote: > I don’t think that i

The best representation for your data is a poly data set with vertex cells, which can be a single point. An unstructured grid, which also supports vertex cells, is fine, too. The native VTK file formats provide reasonable ASCII representations of this data. You can download documentation from

Utkarsh, After reading this question from Olumide, I noticed that ParaView now turns on ZShift for lines and points (vtkProcessModule.cxx, 198-199). I don't know why this is. This effect is turned off when drawing surface+edges (vtkOpenGLCoincidentTopologyResolutionPainter.cxx, 56-58) because

Hi, I'm programming a plugin for ParaView, whose purpose is to be a pre-processor for a finite element simulator. It is all based in selecting nodes or elements, and defining some regions - based on these - so that one can attribute boundary conditions to them. The main challenge seems to assur

2009-10-26 Thread Moreland, Kenneth
I don't think that is going to work. If you transform the tubes, the entire lattice will rotate whereas I think Sreejith wants each tube to rotate around its center. I know of no straightforward way to do this in ParaView. The problem is that the tube filter is designed to create round tubes,

Theoretically yes. But in practice having multiple clients connected to the same server is an open problem because the server was written with the assumption that it has only one client controlling it. There is slightly more support in the code for having the client connected to multiple other proc

Hi Jerome, I assume once you load your xml plugin from the plugin_loader, and check the "Auto Load" checkbox, the next time you start paraview, your xml plugin is loaded automatically, no? Also, you can set up an environment variable "PV_PLUGIN_PATH", which paraview will search by default to load

(Replying back to the ParaView mailing list.) It sounds like you are still linking to the system OpenGL libraries somehow. Those symbols should be defined in the libGL.so that is built with Mesa (whereas the /usr/lib/libGL.so on your system probably does not have them). Did you do a clean bui

[Paraview] Communicating with a Paraview (GUI) server

2009-10-26 Thread Olumide
Hi - I'm aware that Paraview operates/implements a client-server paradigm. This suggests that it may be possible for an external (e.g. C++ application) to communicate with a running instance of Paraview, by sending it commands (e.g. open legacy VTK file) via the port attached to the server.

If someone confirms that paraview proxy have to represent a vtkAlgorithm or one of its subclass, that will mean that you cannot use vtkIterativeClosestPointTransform directly as in the paraview pipeline. And yes, you got it, a custom VTK class would be needed to embed the pipeline connection and th
