Hi Utkarsh,

 let's say that my data set contains quantities a0,a1,a2,a3. I need to compute
quantity bn by creating a (long) pipeline with a series of intermediate steps, where:

b1 = function(a0,a1,a2,a3)
b2 = function(b1,...)
b3 = function(b2,b1,...)
   ...

bn = function(b_n-1,...)

Reading only those quantities (bn) that I wish to plot is exactly what I would like to do. Unfortunately, they're not contained in the original file and I need to create this extra data set first. The question is: can paraview generate such an output file which stores these quantities? I prefer to wait at the beginning and let paraview write a new dataset instead of waiting every time I click and the pipeline is re-executed.

 Best regards,

   Martin

Martin,

You should also be able to choose only the quantities you want to load
from the reader panel itself. Doesn't that help with performance. If
not, I don't think saving out new file with fewer quantities would
make much different either.

Hello,

 I have rather a large output (xdmf format) of an unsteady CFD simulation. I
need to compute some other quantities in the computational domain which are
a function of the variables stored in the original dataset. I created a
pipeline, which works fine but is a bit slow to execute every time I want to
obtain a plot for a new time step.
 Is it possible to select only certain quantities from my pipeline and save
them for all time steps (along with the mesh itself) in a new hdf/xdmf file?
Thank you.

 Best regards,

 Martin Vymazal
