[Paraview] Bug? Paraview will load vrml 1.0 but cannot display

2011-11-24 Thread Steve M. Robbins
Hi, The VTK parser class (vtkVRMLImporter) only handles VMRL 2.0. I believe paraview uses this class, but paraview's vtkVRMLSource method CanReadFile() will accept either 1.0 or 2.0. Is this a bug -- or can paraview handle vrml 1.0 in some manner? I've tried loading some VRML 1.0 examples such

I've just open that same file in a VRML viewer, and everything was black. Maybe, it's the content of the file that is not right ? On Thu, Nov 24, 2011 at 10:48 PM, Steve M. Robbins wrote: > Hi, > > The VTK parser class (vtkVRMLImporter) only handles VMRL 2.0.  I > believe paraview uses this class

Hi Steve, this file is a valid vrml file but use primitive to define its objects and I believe that ParaView importer only process the meshed elements that are composed of triangles. Therefore in that case, it complains saying that nothing is available in that file. Seb On Fri, Nov 25, 2011 at 9

Hi Steve, After trying to load a VRML 1 with mesh, I agree that the VTK VRML importer is not able to understand the format, therefore the ParaView VRML Source should check for a version 2 and not 1. (Or at least not 1) Which mean, you should filled a bug report ParaView (http://www.paraview.org/B
