Hi,
I am now trying to add a simple "watch a running simulation" feature
to my reader GUI. It works such that every time a QTimer times out a
rescan for new timesteps and the following piece of code are run
// set animation time to the last timestep and render the scene
QList<pqAnimationScene*> scenes
= app->getServerManagerModel()->findItems<pqAnimationScene *>();
foreach (pqAnimationScene *scene, scenes)
{
scene->setAnimationTime(latestTime);
}
where latestTime is the time value of the last timestep pulled from
the reader proxy. The code itself works fine, but what annoys me a lot
is that whenever a new time step is detected the ParaView GUI pops up
to the foreground in order to render the scene, at least on OS X. I
would rather like to keep ParaView as a background task while watching
a simulation.
So here are my questions: is there any way that I can set the
animation time and render the scene like the code above, but while
staying at backgound? If yes, how is it possible?
Thanks,
Takuya
