Hi, I was using the writer from the gui in Paraview. I created a very simple programmable source (with output type vtkTable) with a column and a field data array, then clicked File-Save Data from the menu. In the case of a table, the writer window doesn’t allow to specify the association field, so only the row values are exported to the csv file. By the way, I see that if I apply a TableToPoints filter, the field array is copied to the polydata correctly (and can be exported from there), but I haven’t experimented with this solution further yet Thanks Livia

Thanks, Cory On Sun, Mar 15, 2015 at 5:30 AM, <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hello, I am thinking to store some info as FieldData of a table (for example, the parameters used for the calculation of the data in the table - possibly they could also be changing depending on other elements of the pipeline). I tried a toy example in Python and it seems that vtkTable supports it (I am able to add an array and read it back). In Paraview 4.3.1, visualizing the field data from a python annotation works, but if I open the spreadsheet view to see the field data I get Warning: In C:\DBD\pvs-x64\paraview\src\paraview\ParaViewCore\VTKExtensions\Rendering\vtkMarkSelectedRows.cxx, line 209 vtkMarkSelectedRows (0000000010381890): FieldAssociation type not supported yet. Selected elements may not be shown correctly. , also the writer doen't export the field data. Should I go forward in using the FieldData of a table (just remembering that before exporting I should use a Python annotation or a programmable filter to read the field data) or it is actually not supported by paraview and I should avoid it? (for example, the field data would not be updated as the rest of the pipeline, or something like that)?
