If you look at the vtkProbeFilter code, you can see that the source dataset (the geometry onto which you are sampling the input dataset), does not pass its scalars through the filter. I think that when it was written, it was assumed that probing of the data would occur onto some new geometry and the comparison you want to make wasn't imagined at the time. The original scalars are lost.

You should be able to add a PassData(blah blah) at the appropriate place in the probe filter code and the original scalars will appear alongside the new ones.

I would do this for you, but my version of the probe filter is modified somewhat and I don't want to mess about with the necessary merge/diff/conflicts.

If I have time later in the week (when I'm stuck on a train!) I'll have a go at it for you.

The number of points should be the same since I interpolate the data from one grid onto the other grid first before doing the difference.

The calculator filter assumes the same number of points, whereas this is not the case. Note that x1-x2 is undefined if size(x1) != size(x2). Better way to go is to compare bulk values e.g. integrated pressure over some distinc region or 2D intersection plots along some line.

Hi Dominik,

What I mean is that if I load :
grid1, data1
grid2, data2
and
interpolate data1 onto grid2
Then data2 is no longer in the list of variables (see attached picture),
and I can't use the calculator to do data2-data1

Yes I am doing something similar. What does it mean 'no longer have access to data2'?

Hi,

I'm trying to interpolate a pressure field from one grid to another and then compute the difference between the original pressure field and the interpolated one.
So if I have :
grid1, data1
grid2, data2

I want to
1. interpolate data1 onto grid2
2.  compute data2-data1

I try to use the Resample Dataset filter which seems to work for step 1, but then I no longer have access to data2! Am I doing something wrong , or do I need to code up the filter so that it copies the data associated with grid2 ? If anyone has done something similar in the past -- please help :) !
