Hello there,
I'm relatively new to Paraview, and I'd love to have an easy way of
reloading the data and updating the display. From the list archives, I
understand there is no ready-made solution for this at the moment.
So I got the idea to use the sequence "Reset session" -> "Load State"
from the menu, which works like a charm but is a hassle nonetheless.
Next, I tried using this python code as a macro:
from paraview.simple import *
from tempfile import *
t = NamedTemporaryFile(suffix=".pvsm", delete=False)
f = t.name
SaveState(f)
s = GetSources()
for key,val in s.items():
Delete(val)
LoadState(f)
This works, sort of, but deleting the sources isn't quite the same as
resetting the session, for which I haven't been able to find a python
equivalent. What it does, however, is to create a new layout each time
I run the macro, and display a warning "This code may not work in
multi-clients mode" as well. It also appears to tie up a lot of memory
after a few uses, which isn't really that funny.
I also tried adding equivalent lines to delete the views and the
layouts, but behaviour was the same whatever I did.
So, what do I need to do differently? What's the closest I could get in
python to the menu item "Reset session"?
Thanks!
