Utkarsh,

Thanks for response.
I'm afraid "You will need to write a new vtkTableToTextConvertor as a plugin" sounds a bit desperate to me since I'm not well familiar with ParaView source code and plug-in system. However I find this task pretty general and surprised there is no such functionality.

Can you or somebody else in the list guide me a bit concerning plugins?

That's an interesting problem. Try looking at the implementation of
the vtkTimeToTextConvertor filter. You will need to write a new
vtkTableToTextConvertor as a plugin to achieve a similar effect.

When you write the XML definition for this filter., don't forget to
add the following hint so that ParaView knows it treat it as producing
text:

  <Hints>
        <OutputPort name="Output-0" index="0" type="text" />
  </Hints>

Look at the TimeToTextConvertorSource xml definition under
ParaViewCore/ServerImplementation/Resources/sources.xml

Hello,

I have a set of volumes named in a sequential way and loaded as a
time-varying data. I also have simple text file with a set of numbers
assigned to each of the volume (e.g. csv with just one column and number of
rows corresponds to the number of volumes). During animation I want text
with data from file be drawn over 3D view. Just like Annotate time, but
instead of time there should be numbers taken from file.
Can someone point me to the right direction?
Thanks in advance.
