Right; I'll try that later. Moving mesh sequences might also be
represented in one file only I believe.
It's still a bit confusing as to *what ParaView displays when there's
only one state per file.

It is possible to have a sequence of exodus files that each have 1 or
more states in them; as an example, the Sierra codes will output files
with names similar to "box.e, box.e-s0002, ..., box.e-s0006" In
paraview, I can open the file "box.e" and it automatically opens all
files in the series and shows me the combined state times from each file.

entire set of steps.

Hi all,
I've had a bunch of VTU files (say, state1.vtu, state2.vtu,
state2.vtu,...) and using ParaView, it is very easy to display them in
a movie style, being able to "play", "pause", click through the frames
and so on.
I then recently switched to the Exodus format, the information in the
files remains exactly the same (say, state1.exo, state2.exo,
state2.exo,...). When opening each file individually, one is presented
with a slightly altered menu as opposed to VTU files (--makes
sense--), but it does not seem to be possible to "play" the sequence
of the files. ParaView would always iterate over "time" from 0 to 1 in
in steps of 1/9, instead of iterating over the files.
-- Is that something that cane be fixed, or am I ideally expected to
present the data to ParaView in a different way?
Cheers,
Nico
