Not sure what you mean by that last statement -- do you mean transfer an array
to pointdata? I tried to do this:
input = self.GetInput()
output = self.GetOuput()
output = vtk.vtkStructuredGrid()
output.ShallowCopy(input.GetBlock(0))
// create UVW array (3-component velocity array)
output.GetPointData().AddArray(UVWArray)
When I print output, I do see the added array in the point data section with
the correct component and tuple count. However, the bounds of the grid are
suspect (like -0.1 to 0.3 for x; -0.1 to 2.6e-18 for y) and the grid extent is
0, -1, 0, -1, 0, -1.
I also tried:
p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }output.GetPointData().SetVectors(UVWArray)
Didn't work either. Something is still not right here...

I looks like you to apply cell data to point data.

By any chance, does this multi-block dataset contain a block that does not have
arrays (scalars and/or vectors)? That's probably why those filters are
disabled. You can always use
Extract Blocks to extract the block you are interested in and then apply the
filter. As for the Programmable Filter, if you set the output type to
vtkUnstructuredGrid, you should be able to do:
self.GetOutput().ShallowCopy(self.GetInput().GetBlock(0))
assuming that block 0 is a uns. grid.

Hi,
I've read in a CAS file, which Paraview read in a Multi-block dataset, which
contains within it a unstructured grid.
Initially I had a problem where all of the data items were one-tuple arrays.
So I created a UVW (3-tuple velocity) array and added it to the pipeline this
way using a Python programmable filter:
input = self.GetInput()
output = self.GetOutput()
output.ShallowCopy(input)
****create array here***
output.GetBlock(0).GetCellData().AddArray(UVWArray)
Note that "GetBlock(0)" gives me access to the grid object. For some reason
the gradients and streamtracer filters were greyed out and unavailable. So I
decided to make the output variable a vtkUnstructuredGrid instead and
transferred the UVW array to it this way:
output.GetPointData().AddArray(UVWArray)
Nope...didn't work. Any thoughts how I can modify the pipeline so that the
streamtracer and gradients of unstructured data sets array can become usable?
I'm guessing there is something in those classes which tells Paraview that they
require certain input types. I've seen references to stuff like
FillInputPortInformation.
Thanks,
Sohail
