At any rate, what you want to do might not be very straightforward. First, there is an intentional disconnect between filter operations and camera view. There is no straightforward way to change the behavior of a filter based on the current camera view. However, it is possible in your Python script to get the current camera, query it, and based off of that change the parameters of the filters. That said, it still might not be straightforward because if your camera is in a perspective projection (the default), then the dimensions of the viewing plane (which I assume is what you mean by x and y axis in your description) is not well established. They change based on how far from the camera you consider the viewing plane to be. If you are viewing something flat at a known distance, then you can figure it out. Also, you could change to parallel projection, although that would remove the foreshortening that gives vital visual cues in the rendering. -Ken From: Alex Evanovic <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: Thu, 23 Feb 2012 19:11:02 +0100 To: <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Plotting Distances in Zoomed View Hi, I am new to paraview python scripting. I wrote a script which can automate visualization of my .vtu file. Additionally, it can zoom into the view (which I need). Now, I need to plot the distances in x-axis & y-axis only for this zoomed part (not the whole domain). For example, if the domain is from -10 to 10, I need to plot the distances only for the -2 to 2 part. Can someone please tell me how to go about this (in a python script)?
