Hello,

I am wondering whether it would be possible or reasonable to have ParaView match the names of proxies in 'sources' and 'representations'?

When working from Python, it's easy to get a proxy from 'sources' if you know its name from the pipeline. The name even changes when you edit it in the pipeline. In contrast, 'representations' proxies are named 'DataRepresentation1', 'DataRepresentation2', etc., and to find the proper proxy I always have iterate through the representation proxies and check for a match between the proxy from 'sources' and the representation proxy Input.

Since I don't understand much about all the client/server/proxy stuff, I don't know if this is a reasonable request, or if it's difficult for PV to do things internally like change the representation name when the source name is changed.

Thanks,
-Eric
