[Paraview] Out of memory when exporting animations

2011-12-05 Thread Thomas Witkowski
Hi, I want to export an animation of a pvd file to a stack of png files. I use ParaView 3.10.0 and remote rendering, thus, I start the pvserver on a remote machine. When exporting the animation, or even when I step through the data using the time line, the X-Server on the remote machine

It is not a reliable solution to my problem because it works in 2D and my contours are all but almost planars, which makes it very hard to find an appropriate transform.I finally wrote my own algorithm and, waiting to find a bad use case :-), it works for the time being.Anyway thx for trying

Good Morning, A colleague, who has just received his new windows 7 64 bits computer also tried to get Paraview 3.12 64 bits, and to make scipy.signal avalaible. He encountered the same issue as me, and can't import scipy.signal in the paraview python shell. Should I then put a bug in Mantis Bug

Hi Thomas, We've been hitting this same problem and trying to fix this since last week. We're creating an animation with pvbatch rather than pvserver. The only success we've had is with ParaView-3.8. 3.10 and 3.12 both have the behaviour you describe below. We've also tried building PV with

STL has been used pre-3.8, the best that I can remember. What reader are you using Goodwin? We know Thomas is using the PVD reader. I'm wondering is it's reader specific. Let's try to track this one down. Any specific steps that I should do to reproduce the problem on my end? Utkarsh On Mon, Dec

I had also success with using the 3.8 version. BUT, I think, this is just a mere chance. In my case, the both versions, 3.8 and 3.10, seem to be compiled against totally different libraries, especially OpenGL. The 3.8 Version makes use of the NVIDIA OpenGL driver (there is also an nvidia

Hi Utkarsh, The animation script is using LegacyVTKReader to read in a series of vtk files and a STLReader to read in a single stl file. I'll see if I can get a script together to demo the problem. Goodwin On 05/12/2011 19:19, Utkarsh Ayachit wrote: STL has been used pre-3.8, the best that

Hum... I didn't get what you told. The ruled surface filter works for 3D polylines, as soon as you have at least two of them. I just built a screw in ParaView with a LineSource, a SplineSource and the RuledSurfaceFilter. I am curious about the context in which it fails. Is it possible for you
