Thanks for the tip. I actually already used tracing in order to find the command: Probelocation.ProbeType.Center = [10.0,20.0,30.0]
But the problem is that I don't know how to access to the data (rho, vx, vy...) at that location in the python script And since tracing does not capture "Save data", I don't even know how to write the data in a file Cheers, Mc Fly Date : 02/07/2015 15:55:04 CEST Hi McFly, The Python Tracing facility in ParaView is perfect for this kind of task. It records a trace of your actions in the ParaView GUI to a Python script that you can modify a bit to process a bunch of files. To turn on tracing, choose the Tools -> Start Trace menu item. More info on tracing is available in the ParaView User Guide [1] under section 1.6.2.

I am trying to extract points from a bunch of vtu files. It is pretty easily done with "probe location". But since I have a lot of files, I would like to automatize the process (with a macro or a python script). Could someone maybe show me how it's done? My best guess is that I should have the following in a python script: Probelocation.ProbeType.Center = [10.0,20.0,30.0] assuming I want to probe at x=10, y=20, z=30. But then, I don't really know how to retrieve the variables values at that location. Thanks a lot, Mc Fly _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Search the list archives at: http://markmail.org/search/?q=ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/mailman/listinfo/paraview -- Cory Quammen R&D Engineer Kitware, Inc.
