1.  Use a fixed view with Camera.  AutoCamera can be used to give you some
examples for specific time steps or use Image and save a view you like (an
optional output is the current view, which you can Export and then
Import->Camera in your network to make the movie)

2.  You have defined only scattered points.  Is there a grid (i.e., to
create connections) defined implicitly or specified in another file
explicitly or is it scattered points.  If scattered points, modules like
Regrid and Connect can be used to create connections from scattered points.
There was some discussion earlier this month about some proposed
enhancements to this functionality, which will probably be of interest.

Subject:  [opendx-users] how to keep the same region in a dynamically
      generated grid



Hi,

I am new with OpenDX I have a couple of questions (for now :).

1. I am working to create a movie from a simulation with a dynamic grid
generation i.e. each frame has different number of points. I would like
to show the dynamics of a process only for a certain small region, not
for the computational domain. How can I keep the scope of the movie
always at the same region? Shall I go through all the frames and pick
the domain for the movie manually or it may automated.

2. I use General Array Importer to generate a header:

file = 0030.vd
points = 124476
format = ascii
interleaving = record-vector
header = marker "end of header\n"
field = locations, P, T
structure = 3-vector, scalar, scalar
type = float, float, float
dependency = positions, positions, positions
end

How can I include connections with this format? Now the pictures are
build from points and gliphs, but I would like to see the picture
smoother.

Thanks in advance,
Ted
