Re: [Paraview] Ensight Files - crash with 3.10 and 3.12

2011-12-14 Thread Yvan Fournier
Hello, I'll let the ParaView developpers confirm this, but this is almost definitely a bug in OpenFoam, not ParaView. The error message says it all: some faces are not oriented correctly. I had already encountered this bug a few years ago when testing The OpenFoam meshing output with another CFD

Oops, the parent class is vtkSMPropRepresentationProxy but not vtkSMSurfaceRepresentationProxy. Actually the program was developed by somebody else, and I wanted to compile it with a newer version of Paraview. It has a custom plugin which deals with volume rendering and isosurface in one XML (via

Hi Joe, this might be a typo, but first why did you need to inherit vtkSMSurfaceRepresentationProxy.h to create an isosurface ? Could you be more precise on what you use to do on 3.10 and what you try to do in general ? Thanks, Seb On Wed, Dec 14, 2011 at 1:57 PM, Joe Ping-Lin Hsiao wrote: > H

Interesting. Good to know. I cannot find those errors on the dashboard anymore. I'll keep looking. If I can identify the machines, I'll try to see if the Qt was binary install or built-from-source there too. Thanks Utkarsh On Wed, Dec 14, 2011 at 11:38 AM, Biddiscombe, John A. wrote: > Utkarsh >

The online ParaView guide has some introductory material for the Python Programmable Filter (http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Users_Guide/Python_Programmable_Filter). It helps if you are familiar with programming directly with VTK. By convention, ParaView will automatically apply a displaceme

Short answer, no. If your surface is convex, you could threshold the surface elements you need by first running the extract surface filter, then generating cell normals, then using the calculator to extract the x component of the cell normals, then thresholding all cells with the x component of th

Dominik, we're not very high on the list of priorities for the xdmf people. However the xdmf2 rewrite that is available from git://public.kitware.com/Xdmf2.git is stable (and active it seems) - I assume this is not the one you are referring to (wrt paraview), and I am hoping soon to start using i

Does the system python also crash if you set the library path to have the paraview directories? If this is the case you probably gave a conflicting lib in paraview. On 14 Dec 2011 14:32, "Adriano Gagliardi" wrote: > ** > System version is identical. The environment variables are identical with >

System version is identical. The environment variables are identical with the exception of those relating to window ids.

Another good file format for writing topology and data to different files, is the Ensight Gold format. See this post http://www.paraview.org/pipermail/paraview/2010-February/015708.html You can write both acsii and binary files. I can send you a simple fortran routine, which writes topology(quads)
