I tried both PV 4.10 and PV 4.31 and get the same result. - extract surface - connectivity - threshold (defines the surface of the cylinder)
information shows ymax= 0.5, ymin=-0.5 which is correct as the radius of the circle is 0.5. When I save data, the csv files has all of the y< 0 values. For y>0 most values are missing. For the csv file, ymin= 0.5 but ymax = 0.24. There are actually two circles, could this pose a problem? I really need to solve this problem of missing values. Give me ideas to try, alternative ways to write the data (how do I write only the values for the 1st cylinder to see if this is the problem?).
