Saideep,

This may or may not be what you are asking for, but you should be able to get 
the exact location of the contour on the boundaries by first extracting the 
boundary and then running the contours on the boundary. This will give you the 
contours on the boundary only.

How you get the boundary depends on the type of data you have. Based on the 
question and the image you provided, I am assuming that you are talking about 
contours on 2D data. If your 2D data is poly data, you can get the boundary by 
running the “Feature Edges” filter and turning on the “Boundary Edges” option 
(while turning off all the rest). If you have some other 2D data (such as an 
image), you can first convert it to poly data with the “Extract Surface” filter 
and then follow the previous step of using the “Feature Edges” filter. Then 
just run the contour filter on the result of the feature edges and that will 
give you the exact position of the contours on the boundaries. You can then 
open up a spreadsheet view to view the exact locations of those contours.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Paraview] Precise location of contours on boundaries

Hi guys;

Is there a way to know the precise location of a contour on the boundaries (as 
shown in picture)? I use the  traditional tool “ruler”, however when I have too 
many points to measure (as in the figure) by hand it gets complicated.

I tried using the integrate variables(selecting the contour) however, the block 
numbering isn’t consistent and I particularly want values only at the 
boundaries. I am dealing with meniscus and it has a specific curvature based on 
flow.

Any advice here.

Thanks;
Saideep
