The issue may or may not be related to the nan values. It is certainly possible that something in ParaView is crashing when encountering a NaN. Until recently, there was no support whatsoever for NaN, and there is still plenty of code on VTK/ParaView that was not written with NaN in mind and could conceivably crash.
That said, I just tried loading in a netCDF data set with NaN values then running extract surface and warp by scalars and it worked just fine. Could you send the group an example data set? -Ken On 11/19/10 7:02 AM, "Xian Sperber" <[email protected]> wrote: Ok, I found a way now. I will post it here for the benefit of future readers. I had to apply two filters to the data. First 'Extract Suface' and then ' Warp by Scalar'. However, I encountered another problem now. While these filters worked fine on one file they made Paraview crash on another. The only difference between the two files as far as I can see is that the latter has holes in its z-dimensions indicated by 'nan'. is this a problem for paraview. xian On 19 November 2010 14:49, David Doria <[email protected]> wrote: On Fri, Nov 19, 2010 at 8:36 AM, Utkarsh Ayachit <[email protected]> wrote: >> Would anyone agree to a feature request of having the option of >> changing the window type, exactly so you can open this type of file >> and then just click "3d" without having to open a new window and close >> the old one? > > You can right click on the top title bar of a view to get a "Convert > To" menu which allows you to change the view type in place. > > Utkarsh > Ah, nice. It seems to change (disable) the visibility of the pipeline objects though when switching from a 2D to 3D view. (Sorry Xian, you're thread kind of got hijacked).
