I was able to properly load the file you posted and the values posted by Scott. I am not certain why it did not work before, perhaps I did not have the "Merge Consecutive Delimiters" selected, but thought for sure I had toggled it. It also seems that after playing around with the "Calculator" I am

I think there may be two spaces, but whitespace is whitespace. Not even Excel gets confused by the spacing. I've tried the sample case above, but PV still did not recognize the delimit. I have 4 columns: x-coord y-coord u-velocity v-velocity The x, y, z, scalar doesn't achieve what I want. I ne

Alan, I have tried the " ", and it didn't have the effect I had hoped for. Yes, table to point makes points at the coordinates. I have vectors at certain pixel coordinates - processed PIV images. I have (x,y) location with a vector of velocity components (Ux, Uy) at those coordinates. The table t

Zach, Please keep this reply on list, so we all get to learn (and I get to be corrected when I mess up). Try changing the Field Delimiter Characters string to be “ “ Table to point makes points (or dots). I don’t understand your comment about vectors. Alan From: Zach [mailto:zach...@gmail.c

I’m not sure if white space works – but comma’s do work. For instance, X, Y, Z, Var does work. Then, use the Table to Point filter. There is more information here: http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Data_formats Does that answer the question? Alan From: ParaView [mailto:paraview-boun...@paraview.o
