Hi,

I'm a new MayaVi2 user, and I can't figure out how to get my data
into mayavi2 without writing vtk data files.

My simulation data consists of various 3D and 4D-fields stored in
a single netcdf file. I use pynio and tvtk to read my data and convert
it to tvtkStructuredGrid. My question is, how can I pass the data
to mv2?

I tried the following
sg = tvtk.StructuredGrid(dimensions=(nx,ny,nz))
sg.point_data.scalars = u
sg.points = pts
src = VTKDataSource()
src.vtk_data = sg
but this does not work. I guess sg is not of type
VTKDataSource. How can I convert it?

A second question:
Is it normal that mayavi2 often just freezes and does not report
errors when there is an error in the script (e.g. when missing
required import statemens, or when assigning the wrong data
type to ArraySource). Is there a way to change this behaviour?
I downloaded mv2 a few days ago from
https://svn.enthought.com/svn/enthought/trunk.

And a final question:
I appreciate that mv2 is still under active development. Is there
a summary of which modules and filters are already implemented
and which not?

Any help would be appretiated.

Thanks,
Juerg
