Simon,


Selecting the reader in the pipeline browser and calling GetActiveSource() in 
the python shell should return a reference to the reader.

        Hello,

        http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Python_Scripting has the example on 
how to 
list the variables in a dataset.

        =============

        >>> reader = ExodusIIReader(FileName='.../can.ex2')
        # These variables are currently selected
        >>> reader.PointVariables
        ['DISPL', 'VEL', 'ACCL']
        # These are available in the file
        >>> reader.PointVariables.Available
        ['DISPL', 'VEL', 'ACCL']
        # Enable the DISPL array only
        >>> reader.PointVariables = ['DISPL']
        # Force read
        >>> reader.UpdatePipeline()
        # Now check the output. Note: GlobalNodeId is generated automatically 
by the 
reader.
        >>> reader.PointData[:]
        [Array: GlobalNodeId, Array: PedigreeNodeId, Array: DISPL]
        ====================


        If I am doing this in ParaView GUI and I load the can.ex2 data manually 
and 
then use Tools->Python Shell to get to python, how do I get a list of the 
variable? Who would be the parent of PointVariables.Available? 
<????>.PointVariables.Available ?

        thanks
        -simon
