Thanks  a lot Cory - you saved my day!

While this must be trivial for experienced paraview users, I still want to share the detailed steps: (1) load two files one by one; make sure they have the same topology and different scalar array names; (2) select both files in the pipeline window by using Shift key and clicking two file names; (3) with two files selected, go to Filters and choose Append Attributes; This creates a new object AppendAttributes1; (4) using this new object to create contour and color it. Now there are options in Contour by and Coloring when creating contour. Choose the array
at your choice.

Thanks again.

You can combine two data sources with the Append Attributes filter in
ParaView, but they must have the same topology (points and cells). The
scalar arrays should also have different names. If this is the case
for your two VTK files, you can Contour by one, then color by the
other.

HTH,
Cory

Hi there, I searched the maillist but found that this has never been
completely answered. I have two scalar vtk files, one for generating
isosurface and the other for coloring the isosurface. How can I make this
out? Thank you! -yc
