Hello, all.
I have been using Paraview 3.8.1 with the Tecplot reader without a
problem on an old HP xw4200 workstation with Linux 64 Redhat 5. The only
thing that did not work was the LIC plugin because my graphic card
driver was too old.
Today, my workstation has been replaced and I have now a Dell T3500 with
Linux 64 Redhat CentOS, but the Tecplot reader fails. I get no error
message, each array in the dataset is recognized with its correct name,
but all values are completely wrong: each array (coordinates or CFD
scalars) is in the range [0,9] or [-9,9] and the drawing in the 3D
window looks like an aircraft after a crash! The problem appears both
with PV 3.8.1 32 bits and PV 3.8.1 64 bits. I am using the binaries from
the Paraview download page.
Our CFD software produces only Tecplot files and I have a workaround
with a small utility that can convert my ascii Tecplot Datasets into
ascii VTM Datasets, and at least the LIC plugin works fine on theswe VTM
datasets. But translating Tecplot datasets into VTM datasets is very
annoying when I am using large CFD datasets for a full aircraft because
it duplicates my data and it reduces my free disk space. Does anyone has
an idea of what could be done to repair the Tecplot Reader on CentOS?
Best regards.
