I’m pretty sure if you select Duplicate Cells it will just copy all the points to all processes, so that is not a good option. The divide cells is also giving poor results on this front. I think you are better off using the 2D Glyph filter to break up the cell first.

I could get it to work as well but also had to check "Boundary Mode" as "Duplicate Cells" while applying the D3 filter. Thanks Moreland!

It looks like it is not an issue with D3 but a change with how Table to Points creates data (or perhaps how data are written). It looks like Table to Points is creating one “cell” with a lot of points. This saves a little memory but ends up preventing D3 from dividing the points up. The best solution is to add a “2D Glyph” filter after the Table to Points but before the D3 filter. Set the “Glyph Type” to “Vertex”. Then apply the D3 filter to the output of the 2D Glyph filter. -Ken From: Faiz Abidi [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] Sent: Thursday, March 2, 2017 1:38 PM To: Moreland, Kenneth <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: ParaView <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; Rajamohan, Srijith <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; Nicholas Polys <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; Ayat Mohammed <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [Paraview] CSV to PVTU Hi Moreland, Thanks for your reply. I thought same except maybe not use the GUI since my data is big and takes forever to load up in Paraview. Quick question/observation - using the GUI and 8 processes, and applying the Tables to Points filter + D3 and then trying to save files doesn't create 8 vtu files and 1 pvtu file as expected. Instead, what happens is that I get only 1 pvtu file along with 1 vtu file instead. Clearly something wrong. This was done using v5.2.0. I tried the same thing using v4.0.1 (yes, old but it works!) and I got 8 vtu files and 1 pvtu file as expected. Do you think this is a bug with 5.2.0? Or do I need to do something different with 5.2.0? Any pointers appreciated!

Looking for suggestions - what would be a decently fast way to convert a huge CSV file into PVTU files? What I want to do - load this huge file in a CAVE like environment, and use 8 parallel processors. -- Faiz Abidi | Master's Student at Virginia Tech | www.faizabidi.com<http://www.faizabidi.com> | +1-540-998-6636<tel:(540)%20998-6636> -- Faiz Abidi | Master's Student at Virginia Tech | www.faizabidi.com<http://www.faizabidi.com> | +1-540-998-6636<tel:(540)%20998-6636> -- Faiz Abidi | Master's Student at Virginia Tech | www.faizabidi.com<http://www.faizabidi.com> | +1-540-998-6636
