Hi Hal, thanks for your quick reply and the example code. That's very
helpful. I do have these remaining questions that perhaps you could help
me with:
* In your experience, is a programmable source a suitable place to
call a potentially long running finite element code?
If it fails, you may be unable to cancel the operation. I've had to
kill ParaView when a script went into an infinite loop.
* Is it possible to update the data structure while it is already
being displayed, that is, before the script finishes?
No that I know of. If you have three "stages" to your algorithm you
could create one programmable source and two programmable filters. Then
you could inspect intermediary data before moving on.
* And is it possible to have a programmable source output multiple
data sets if necessary?
Not that I know of. Would a multi-block dataset work?
