Re: [Paraview] How to repeat a 1 deg segment to produce larger angles

Dear David, Thanks a lot for your detailed suggestions. I will try these solutions after the result has been prepared. By the way, if the original result is based on a 2D axial symmetrical model, can I do a rotation transformation to produce a 3D full cycle result? I will see how to submit a

Dear all, I am doing an axial symmetrical model by rotating a 2D geometry along the circumferential direction by only 1 degree. This is sufficient for the modelling; however I expect to represent the modelling results in ParaView with 10 to 20 degrees, which would be larger and better for 3D

Hmm, we don't have a nice interface for that. The reflection filter will copy geometry across the x,y or z vector and optionally aggregate the input and output together. But it looks like that won't do anything but right angles. The transformation filter will let you do arbitrary rotations so

Alternatively a python programmable filter could do it fairly easily by copying the data through and then applying a rotation to the points. David E DeMarle Kitware, Inc. RD Engineer 28 Corporate Drive Clifton Park, NY 12065-8662 Phone: 518-371-3971 x109 On Tue, May 17, 2011 at 5:17 PM, David
