[Paraview] Group scalars into a vector

2012-11-01 Thread Nick Szapiro
Hi, Using a reader I would prefer not to edit, x,y,z velocities at vertices are read as 3 scalars. How can I group them or create another variable that is the vector representation of these three? I would like to create glyphs of the velocity field at the vertices. I would appreciate any help. Tha

Hi Nick, You can use the Calculator to create a vector field from your three scalar fields. Say your three scalar fields are named X_VELOCITY, Y_VELOCITY, and Z_VELOCITY. Then in the main text field just above the various functions/operators, you should enter (iHat*X_VELOCITY) + (jHat*Y_VELOCITY

Hi, Thank you for your reply. This works perfectly. For those it may help, I had to create a glyph filter of the vector to visualize the result. Simply toggling the display options from surface to 3D glyphs does not work for me. Cheers, Nick On Thu, Nov 1, 2012 at 3:44 PM, Cory Quammen wrote: >
