[Paraview] histograms on time dependant datasets (pvd) with PV 3.8.0

2010-07-13 Thread Philippe David
When I create an animation using Histogram filter on the PVD, the histogram is not updated (keep showing the distribution for t=0). I am using the same pipeline as in PV 3.6.2. Is there is different protocol to use with PV 3.8.0 ? Thanks for any feedback Philippe DAVID SCC

[Paraview] Is there an easy way to do a Zoom to box from python

Hello, I would like to know how to perform something like Zoom to box functionality in python? Thanks, Regards, Laurent ___ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html

The ResetCamera function is probably what you're looking for. To get a desired zoom level I typically use the parallel projection scale funcion. view = GetRenderView() view.ResetCamera() view.CameraParallelProjection = 1 view.CameraParallelScale = [someValue] Peter. On Tue, Jul 13, 2010 at

Hello Philippe, What is your pipeline? Are you running this from the GUI, or from Python? Did you compile this version yourself, or is it downloaded binaries for some platform? When I open a time-dependent PVD file and put a histogram right after it in the 3.8.0 pipeline and hit Play on the

Eric, Actually this is a regular binary downloaded from Paraview.org. (windows 32 , same problem on linux 64) the play operates correctly but the save animation only saves the 1st frame (t=0) of the histogram. On the other hand, the 3D Vtu view is correctly updated. My pipeline is a simple

Eric, If I remember correctly, this filter is designed to work with ExodusIIReader alone. Exodus puts what it calls Global Variables in the FieldData, and this filter is generating a plot for that. It shouldn't be too hard to create a Plot FieldData Over Time filter modeled on

Hey Philippe, Yes, I can verify that saving animations of time dependent chart views doesn't work properly on my system, either. (Both 3.8.0 and git head.) I tried with Histogram, and also with Plot Over Line and Plot Data (the latter at least changed once in a while during the animation

Hey Utkarsh, Thanks for the clarification. Do you know if there are any data sets with this type of global field data in the VTK or ParaView data samples so I could see what that looks like? Thanks, -Eric On Jul 13, 2010, at 9:54 AM, Utkarsh Ayachit wrote: Eric, If I remember correctly,
