There is always a reason Alan :-) In the case, luckily, the reason is not "it is a bug". It is the fact that summing a variable is not "integrating" a variable. So the filter does that its name implies. If you want to sum a variable, there are other ways. The "simplest" being the programmable filter with the following script:
print sum(inputs[0].PointData['RTData'][:,0], axis=0) Substitute PointData and RTData with the appropriate cell/point connectivity and array name. Now I realize that this is totally black magic and not simple at all. We really need to make this much more accessible to users through the calculator. I am envisioning something like this: Filter: Python Calculator Expression: sum(array_name) (where the function sum is selected from a pull-down menu) Array Association: field data Is this easy enough for most users?
