Hedieh, My first suggestion is to use the Contour filter rather than either IsoVolume or Threshold. The result should take much less memory.
You did not mention what kind of data you have, and that makes a difference if you want to subsample your data. If you have a regular data set (image/uniform grid, rectilinear, or structured/curvilinear), then you can you use the Extract Subset filter to subsample the data. Turn on the advanced options and change the Sample Rate I,J,K to set the subsampling. If you have something like an unstructured grid, you can use the Resample With Dataset filter. -Ken From: Hedieh Ebrahimi <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Date: Wednesday, August 21, 2013 1:14 AM To: "[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>" <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Creating contour on IsoVolume Hello, I need to apply Contour or IsoVolume or Threshold on my DataSet to get a plume and then see the evolution of this plume by time but because my DataSet is huge (100M cells) after a few time steps as my plume gets vaster, ParaView crashes. Is there any way to apply one of these filters on a geometrically-proportional sample of my DataSet so that ParaView doesn´t crash? Thanks
