[Paraview] CVS head crashes on Leopard at vtkCarbonRenderWindow

2009-01-15 Thread Takuya OSHIMA
Hi,

I updated and built my copy of cvs head for the first time this
year. Unfortunately, it gets immediate crash after opening the main
window at vtkCarbonRenderWindow::UpdateGLRegion(). Here's a part of
gdb backtrace output:

Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory.
Reason: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE at address: 0x0166
0x9710968c in objc_msgSend ()
(gdb) backtrace

#9  0x043ae10b in vtkRenderWindow::DoStereoRender ()
#10 0x043ae2d9 in vtkRenderWindow::DoFDRender ()

However, if I revert ParaView3/VTK/Rendering/vtkCarbonRenderWindow.cxx
from the current revision of 1.75 to revision 1.74, I get a compiler
waring about a deprecated API but the produced binary runs fine. So
I'm wondering if the compiler warning fix

revision 1.75
date: 2009-01-13 03:06:53 +0900;  author: seanmcbride;  state: Exp;  lines: +10 
-1;  commitid: rPzETQM9lDA3Mbyt;
COMP: fixed compiler warning related to bug 4001, by conditionally using newer n
on-deprecated API

of vtkCarbonRenderWindow.cxx is really correct.

Am I the only one who is having this problem? I'm using an Intel Mac
Pro, OS X 10.5.6, gcc 4.0.1 build 5490, Xcode 3.1.2.

Re: [Paraview] how to control paraview from python

2009-01-15 Thread Utkarsh Ayachit
You cannot make an external python interpretor or pvpython control an
separate paraview process. To be able to affect ParaView GUI through
python you have to use the python shell provided by the GUI.

 I also tried to create a server pvserver, connect my script to that

 but I keep getting

 The startup command failed to start ... check your PATH and file permissions

 what should my PATH have?

Re: [Paraview] GUIToolbar in python? or XML to python

2009-01-15 Thread Utkarsh Ayachit
 Hi there is there a way to create a GUIToolbar icon in python

* Not really. Python cannot be used to control/modify the GUI
components per say.

 or is there to write a XML view, that trows the data parameters to a
 python script, instead of c++ classes,
 pretty much like the helix.xml plugin example.

 * Well, in your view plugin, you can create a new vtkSMViewProxy
subclass that passes parameters to an internal python interpretor.
Otherwise however, there's no direct way of doing this.

 btw how can I hide the ...from the helix source plugin!!!

* To hide any property use the show hint as under:

Proxy ...
  ...
  Hints
Property name=Script show=0 /
!-- this will not show the Script property in the GUI --
  /Hints
/Proxy

 These scripts are meant to be used at values for the Script paramater
for Programmable Filter or Programmable Source as identified by the
title. These will not directly work from the python shell or pvpython.
Create a Programmable Source from the Sources menu in the ParaView
GUI and try pasting the script in the Script entry box on the
Paramaters panel.

Re: [Paraview] Writer Plugin cannot be loaded

Hi!

I have written a Writer-Plugin and after (at last) successfully 
compiling and linking it within Paraview, I tried to load it with the 
PluginManager,
and in the Paraview/build/bin directory I found my libVdcWriter.so, 
but loading fails. I get the error message: libVdcWriter.so: no such 
file or directory
But the file is in the build/bin - directory, the 
plugin-manager-browser found it!
Does anyone know what could be the problem here? Is it possible that I 
missed to link something, any library from paraview so that this 
plugin can be loaded?


It sounds like the dynamic linker/loader , ld, isn't finding your 
libVdcWriter.so library. first you can verify by running ldd on your 
plugin and searching for not found. like this:


ldd /path/to/libMyPlugin.so | grep not found

This will list the libraries that are not found. There are a number of 
ways to remedy such an issue. The easiest (especially for debugging 
purposes) is to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH on the command line to add locations 
to ld's search path. You know where the missing library is located then 
you can run paraview like this:


LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/path/to/missing/lib/folder /path/to/paraview

or you can export this variable in your shell.



and by the way, a stupid question: linux .so - files are equivalent to 
windows .dll-files, true? so while I´m loading my plugins as .dlls in 
windows, with linux they have the ending .so, right?


thx a lot,

 Sean, would you mind (1) fixing this or (2) reverting your

 I think we should view vtkCarbonRenderWindow itself as largely deprecated and
 just ignore deprecation warnings from within it... Cocoa will be the new order
 of the day after the upcoming Qt 4.5 kinks are worked out...

Re: [Paraview] Calling a vtk filter from my custom filter

2009-01-15 Thread Utkarsh Ayachit
You can instantiate the vtkExtractEdges filter and connect it to
shallow copy of your input (don't directly connect the input to avoid
nasty pipleine update issues) and then call Update() on the
vtkExtractEdges to make it execute. Then you can shallow copy
vtkExtractEdges' output to your own or further processes it.

 Hi ParaView Community,

 I'm programming a filter, and I would like to call the vtkExtractEdges
 filter from it. Since my filter acts on vtkPolyData, it extends
 vtkPolyDataAlgorithm.

 The problem is, the requestData() method of all filters are made protected,
 so that only derived classes are able to call it. Hence, I can't see how can
 I call this method from inside the body of my filter's code.

 What's the usual way to do things such this ?

 Thanks in advance,

Re: [Paraview] Problems with the new color legend

2009-01-15 Thread Moreland, Kenneth
 The minimum and the maximum values show up differently (not aligned with) from
 the rest of tick values. They seem to be different from vertical (see
 vertical.png) to horizontal (see horizontal.png).

That is by design.  The min/max labels are placed where they can be shown
with the maximum amount of precision (so that you get the most accurate
account of what the range is).

 Also, the Number of Labels
 field has no effect. There were always minimum+3middlevalues+maximum in the
 color legend, even though I used 7 (see editor1.png and editor2.png for the
 editor window I am using). I think this is a bug.

The field is working, but it really means the maximum number of (non
min/max) labels.  It will show less if it means the labels will be more
readable.  You have to bump up the number of labels to 11 before you get to
the next increment that the color bar will allow.  I changed the label next
to the field to better reflect what it means.

Note that the point of the changes to the scalar bar are to make it more
readable.  Even with only 5 labels, you can quickly pinpoint the color
precisely to the thousands place using the minor tick marks.  That's way
better than you could with the old labels.

Hi there

I'm developing a pythong plugin. I'm using tkinter for some quick

I can do a tkFileDialog.askopenfilename()

but after the tkdialog is opened the paraview menu is gone.

all is left is a console window (empty)
and in the menu there is Paraview, FILE, EDIT

If I click on Paraview there is an about TCL/TK option

so my question is:

How do I mix tk in paraview without losing the menus (filters,

has anyone tried this

[Paraview] Averages over Selections of Sliced Areas

2009-01-15 Thread Maurice Waldner
Dear Paraview Users

I have been using ParaView for some time now, but am unsure of how to calculate 
averages over certain areas. Picture1 shows a side-view of an incineration 
vessel. It has several passes, some of them with separation walls. Picture2 
depicts a horizontal slice of it.
I would like to calculate average values (e.g. of velocity, temperature, etc.) 
of some of these SUB-areas of the slice. In addition, very near to the walls, 
there is the wall effect. I would for instance calculate the averages of the 
subareas, excluding the values nearer than 100 mm to the walls.

1) How can I calculate the averages of the sub-areas?
2) How can I calculate the averages of the sub-areas, excluding the wall-effect 
boundary zone?

Thank you very much for your help!
Maurice
