This is what I meant: 1) load the vtk file ParaView now makes a pipeline that looks like this FileReader->Data And the data is like so (just a list of points in space): x1,y1,z1: x2,y2,z2: ... 2) Apply the Calculator Filter to add a constant valued point associated array to the data. Now

Hello, I installed from source version 3.4.2. Now I can follow your procedure. I generated the new vtk file (saved as ascii), but it is definitely different from what I started from: # vtk DataFile Version 3.0 vtk output ASCII DATASET POLYDATA POINTS 25 float 64.3441 20.798 26.378 64.3441 20.7

You can manually change the glyphs shape and size. It has some default size which is probably not working well with your data. You can also supply values with each point and have the glyphs shaped and oriented according the the values. On Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 1:07 PM, David E DeMarle <[EMAIL PROTE

To be honest, ParaView doesn't make loading in a simple list of coordinates as easy as it should. It's something we will be working on in the near future (e.g. bug #5016, http://www.paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=5016). However, it is still possible to do what you want, it just takes a few more step
