Try this: input = self.GetInputDataObject(0, 0) inp_copy = input.NewInstance() inp_copy.ShallowCopy(input) inp_copy.UnRegister(None) cutter = vtk.vtkCutter() plane = vtk.vtkPlane() plane.SetOrigin(0,0,0) plane.SetNormal(0,1,0) cutter.SetCutFunction(plane) cutter.SetInput(inp_copy) cutter.Update()

Here my probably faulty python code: slice = vtk.vtkCutter() plane = vtk.vtkPlane() plane.SetOrigin(0,0,0) plane.SetNormal(0,1,0) slice.SetCutFunction(plane) slice.SetInput(field) slice.Update() out.SetFieldData(slice.GetFieldData()) The result is an empty Output Window popping up along

To make sure that I understand, vtkCutter does not work, right? Why? Are you trying to extract a cut/slice or a subset with constant i, j or k from an image data? -berk On Fri, Feb 19, 2010 at 10:12 AM, Thorsten Hater wrote: > Thanks for this! But contrary to my earlier optimism it seems not s

I just wrapped servers/filters (where vtkPVExtractVOI and vtkPVImageSlice reside) the other day. So, to use them you will need to use paraview cvs and import pvfilters in your script. David E DeMarle Kitware, Inc. R&D Engineer 28 Corporate Drive Clifton Park, NY 12065-8662 Phone: 518-371-3971 x10

Thanks for this! But contrary to my earlier optimism it seems not so easy to use a slice filter in a programmable filter (I played mostly with the pvpython up to this point) The python vtk module does not export ExtractVOI or ImageSlice filter, the generic cutter does not work for me. If I impo

It is definitely doable with the programmable filter although not as trivial as it would be with a tool like VisTrails. The programmable filter can accept multiple inputs. You could use the point from on of its inputs to setup the parameter of an internal slice filter - which requires importing the

Hello, I have encountered the following problem in a set of animations: There is a moving particle in a field and I want to slice the field at the particle's position (effectively the y-component of the position). Additionally the slice should move automatically with the particle for making an an
