Ken,
Would it be possible to rectify that (for myself) if I compiled
Paraview using my installed netCDF libraries?

It might be that ParaView is compiled with a version of netCDF that
is too low. netCDF is generally not forward compatible.

Ken,
Thats great, I really appreciate it. I guess I missed this file in
the paraview dataset. I was not able to get this particular file to
load, however, some of the other examples in that directory work
quite well - thanks for the resource. The reader was automatically
detected, so, I guess there is something wrong with the structure of
the files I am creating. This is perfect though, I had no clue if
the problem was me, the paraview binary, or a little bit of both.
Now things have been whittled down a bit. Thanks, have a great day.

There is an example netCDF file that comes with the VTK test data.
It is identical to the one from here:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/examples/tos_O1_2001-2002.nc
On retrospect, Im not sure that the netCDF that comes with ParaView
is version 4. We may need to update it.

Ken,
Thanks for the reply. I have tested with both *.nc and *.ncdf, with
no luck on the netCDF reader showing up on the list. I generated the
netCDF file using the netcdf4-python (http://code.google.com/p/netcdf4-python/
) interface, using the NETCDF4 and NETCDF3-CLASSIC filetypes. Both
types show coherent output when using the netCDF viewer "ncdump." I
checked the Paraview Dataset file to see if there were any netCDF
files, and did not come across any. I did however see there were
*.h5 (hdf5) files. The documentation states that these should have a
viewer as well, but when I opened one of these files, I was
presented with the same reader list as before, with no mention to an
hdf5 reader.

ParaView first uses extensions to determine file type. Files with
extension .nc or .ncdf are assumed to be netCDF files. If you are
using another extension it should still work so long as the
extension does not conflict with any other extension used. If no
file extension matches you should get a dialog box asking you what
type of reader to use. If the file is detected as a valid netCDF
file, it should show up in that list.

Hi all, I have a question. I have been using VTK for some time now,
and have recently been focusing my efforts on Paraview. I am running
into a problem though. I am trying to import netCDF volume data. I am
able to import the file using the raw binary filter, which works quite
well, however, when I try to import a netCDF file with compressed
variables, this approach does not work. Glancing through the
documentation, it appears that the is a netCDF reader built in,
however it doesn't look like my file is being associated with the
netCDF reader when opening. A little about my setup: Mac OS X 10.6.1,
Paraview 3.6.1 binary, netCDF 4.0.1. Any help on this would be really
appreciated. Thanks!
