Does ParaView support .facet files? There appears to be one in VTK, some documentation suggests it should be there (http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/ParaView:FAQ), but ParaView does not seem to load them. -Ken From: Micah North mailto:micah.no...@matrixresearch.com>> Date: Thu, 13 Oct 2011 18:12:50 -0

Hi, Currently in ParaView you can't expose a new reader with a pure XML based plugin. I have added the feature to mantis so you can track the feature ( http://paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=12657) In the meantime you will have build your own plugin which will require you too build your own version

You can use the python console instead of a plugin, if you want. Open the python console under the Tools menu and execute: filename = "foo.facet" import vtkIOPython r = vtkIOPython.vtkUGFacetReader() r.SetFileName(filename) r.Update() t = TrivialProducer() t.GetClientSideObject().SetOutput(r.Get
