Hi again,

I have succeeded to convert my geometry to stl which can be superposed to the 
vtk data in Paraview. This is OK so far, however it is a bit clumsy if I want 
to make a cut (slice) - I have to apply two slices, one for each dataset (vtk 
and stl). Does someone know a more elegant way to have geometry and results in 
the same view?

Thanks,

Matthias

Betreff: AW: [Paraview] View geometry / boundaries

Hi,

thank you for the answer.

I don't see how I could get my geometry data to EnSight format - they are in 
STEP format.
I did not find the Extract Group Filter in Paraview 3.12.0-RC2.

It would be practical if I could superpose vtu grid data and geometry/mesh 
data...

I have just seen that I can superpose two vtk files. So it might be a solution 
to convert my geometry data to vtk and superpose it to the results. Is there a 
known workflow how to do that?

Thanks,

Matthias

Dr Zenker,

I am not sure that your data (images?) is amenable to EnSight-formatted results.

In my case, the EnSight-format's "part" construct is used to create 
individually displayable graphical objects for each material in the results 
files. The Extract Group filter will allow any combination of parts to be 
extracted and further processed for display. One can also apply multiple 
Extract Group filters to the same datum source to create 'forked' pipelines.

As an aside, ParaView will read multiple results datum-sets (written in 
different formats) and display them one on top of the other or side-by-side. I 
find this feature very useful for creating complex displays that illustrate a 
particular simulation result.

Hi,

when viewing the distribution of, say, temperature within a geometry, I would 
like to see the different bodies in the geometry as outline (resp. the 
boundaries as surfaces) at the same time. Is this possible? Which information 
is required in the vtu file (which maybe isn't there - how can I check that?)? 
Or else is there the possibility to overlay a mesh or geometry file (.msh, 
.step, ...) in the view?

Thank you for a hint,

Matthias
