Jan Stránský proposed the following answer: Hi Ricardo, just now I need this feature and found out a workaround. If you make a "clip" in paraview, you can see inside the cliced spheres. To make them "solid", do the following by external script/program: - define a cutting plane - iterate over spheres and choose spheres that are cut by the plane - compute projection of the spheres center on the plane - compute section circles radii (section circles = circles cut by the cutting plane from the spheres) - export the projected center, section circle radius and plane normal to a new vtk file - in paraview, cut spheres in ordinary way (now you can sse inside them) - load the new file with circle and create cylinder glyph, defining very low height (visually equal to planar circles) - now the section seems as the spheres were solid :-) do you (or other people) stiil need this feature? if so, I can post my script (after sme cleanup and documentation) that does the conversion. cheers Jan 2013-12-16 20:46 GMT+01:00 Bruno Chareyre < [email protected]>: > Question #240738 on Yade changed: > https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/240738 > > Bruno Chareyre proposed the following answer: > My impression is that it is not possible with paraview, but better ask > on paraview forum if you need experts answers. > > -- > You received this question notification because you are a member of > yade-users, which is an answer contact for Yade. > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp > -- You received this question notification because you are a member of yade-users, which is an answer contact for Yade. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~yade-users Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~yade-users More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
