Hi Utkarsh,

thanks for the tip. I'm trying now to use the vtkExtractSelection filter, but 
it requires two inputs: a vtkSelection object, and the Model, whose block will 
be extracted, according to the selection. The question now is: how to get the 
vtkSelection object which corresponds to my current selection made in Paraview 
? I can only manage to get a pqSelectionManager object in my filter.

Thanks again for the help.

Regards,
Rafael.

Currently there's no direct way of converting from block to id-based selection. 
vtkConvertSelection does not handle the case where the input is a block-based 
selection.  Feel free to add a feature request to the bug tracker..

 
A possible alternative would be to apply the ExtractSelection filter and then 
fetch the resulting dataset to the client. That will have the ids for the 
extracted block.

Hi,

I want to get the global Ids of the nodes selected through
selection inspector, using a "Block Selection" to choose a part of the
model. 

I thought I would be able to retrieve the ids of the
cells (or points) with the method pqSelectionManager::getIndices() or
pqSelectionManager::getGlobalIds(), but none of them retrieve any Ids
when I make the selection of a block.

Which is the right way to get this information ?

Regards,
Rafael.
