Thanks Utkarsh, Just a quick question to validate my understanding. It sounds like you're confirming what I had determined so far, you can't plot simple 2D data, you have to pretend its 3D, i.e. the additional of a z axis where the values are all zero? I had figured that one out, and it works for this example, a simple heat map. However, this doesn't work for the creation of a contour plots or elevation plots, where the third variable is interpreted as height? Ideally, the result would be an elevation plot with the height values also used to color the surface. Can these other types of plots also be created in paraview?
