[Paraview] Coloring of cell-centered vectors

2010-07-29 Thread waku
Hi, I'd like to know that Paraview can set color to the vector arrows defined at cell-center of CVs. I have a CFD data (lagacy unstructured VTK format) only supplying the cell-centerd velocity components like below, but can not choose color of the velocity arrows from "Color by" menu in the Displa

Hi, I'm getting the same error after installing from source (also the Linux-x86_64 version). This is odd because I indicated not to build the gui, although a previous build in which I did build the gui caused the same error. Adam ___ Powered by ww

There is still no good way to do this in the UI. Please file a feature request. I don't see any reason why this can't be made automatic in the GUI. In the meantime, the path I am thinking that one might do this at the user level is to select the point/cell you want to follow, plot that over time.

I have a time series dataset and the geometry moves over time. Is there a way to make the geometry so that it remains centered in the display window? I want to keep the view centered on a part centroid, for instance. Otherwise, the object moves off of the screen over time . ___

The test file to be read in shouldn't be too large so that the test actually completes fairly quickly. My best recommendation is to see how other readers are being test. What type of output does your reader produce? Andy On Tue, Jul 27, 2010 at 11:40 PM, Mark Olesen wrote: > On Tue, 2010-07-27

David Thanks. I think the vtkTableExtentTranslator is the right one for the job. I can instantiate one in the adaptor - or the pythoin script, and use the mpi_rank from the simulation to setup the extents table. What will be the hard part is forcing the pipeline to use it in the glue between th
