[Paraview] Displaying a value on top of an animation

I have an animation of a filling tank. I have an integration filter to get the volume at a particular time-step. Is there a way to display this number on the animation so that it updates? I'm thinking of something similar to the annotate time filter but that I can use a custom field with, such

You can change your filter (or add a new one) that outputs a vtkTable with a single row and column of a string containing the text you want to show (look at vtkTimeToTextConvertor) and then in the XML for the filter add the following hint (same as the TimeToTextConvertor in

Xunlei, Are you expecting to see the extents setup correctly before hitting the Apply button the first time? That indeed won't be the case. You'll have to hit apply and let the actual data-reading happen before the information will be shown on the information tab. Utkarsh On Sat, Feb 5, 2011 at

The bitness comes from ParaViewCommon.cmake around line 280 and passed into build_paraview_client in Applications/ParaView/CMakeLists.txt around line 49. I guess in this case the title should be Universal, what do you think? I have similar logic that generates the dmg name that way. i.e. if there

I would have thought that some sort of header file would be created with all the preprocessor logic and then the actual Qt code would call out to that header file to get the correct QString to display in the title. Just having Universal in the header may or may not be good enough. I think I
