Hi Samuel, thank you! So there is a way to do what I want provided that the mesh data are converted similar to the files you sent me. Good to know. It would probably require some coding from my side to implement that solution for my workflow, i.e. teach Salomé and/or Elmer to convert the mesh into that multi-file format. Since I am short in time at the moment, I will live with the threshold filter solution Cory proposed.
Thank you again, Matthias Von: Samuel Key [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Dienstag, 14.

Take a look at the ASCII-formatted file fmavto.mesh.pvd; it is a "mother file" that tells ParaView about all of the *.vtu files. (Also, the *.vtu can be loaded individually if you like.) Samuel W.

However, I don't know how to make a mesh generated by Salomé a multi-block dataset. Could you tell me more or give me a pointer on where I can find that out?

ParaView has a multi-block inspector that enables you change the visibility of the blocks in a data set. If you make each surface a block, then you can show/hide each at will.

I load the mesh.vtu file and apply the Threshold filter on the GeometryID, and display that together with my simulation results. That works fine. If I want to display several parts selectively, I can use several Thresholds, which is a bit clumsy. It would be nice to be able to get a list of all GeometryIDs, and to check those which I want displayed. Do you know if there is a way to do that? Or on a more general basis: are there other, more elegant ways to display a geometry in ParaView?

If the edges have a cell data array giving the ID, you should be able to use the Threshold filter to extract the edges associated with a particular body ID. Just set the threshold values to the ID you want to see. Hope that helps, Cory On Mon, Jun 13, 2016 at 6:43 PM, Zenker, Dr. Matthias <[email protected]><mailto:[email protected]> wrote: Hi, is there a way to display the boundaries (edges) of a 2D geometry? I have converted my mesh to vtu using Elmergrid, so I have the IDs of bodies (=surfaces in 2D) and boundaries (edges) in a vtu file. Can I just display the edges having the same ID? The extract edges filter does not help. What else could I try?
