Re: [Paraview] How to add plug-in's parameters to ParaView state file
Every time SaveState is called in the ParaView GUI, pqApplicationCore singleton fires a signal stateSaved(vtkPVXMLElement*). Your code can handle this signal to add new child XML elements to the root. Similarly, there's a stateLoadeded(...) signal that gets fired that you can handle to load the custom elements from the state xml.

Re: [Paraview] How to add plug-in's parameters to ParaView state file
I have not tried this from a plug in, but I can't think of any reason why it would not work: #include pqApplicationCore.h #include pqSettings.h ... pqSettings *settings = pqApplicationCore::instance()-settings(); pqSettings is a subclass of QSettings (it adds a few methods for saving and restoring the positions of windows). The one returned by the pqApplicationCore singleton instance will point to ParaView's settings file. -Ken On 1/2/11 7:04 PM, Nenad Vujicic nena...@gmail.com wrote: Hello everyone, I have developed exporter plug-in for ParaView with 50+ input parameters.

Is there also some easy solution when working with pvpython and pvbatch clients or I should add Python parsing code to servermanager.py (servermanager::LoadState())?

Re: [Paraview] How to add plug-in's parameters to ParaView state file
Nenad, The signals that pqApplication core fires are actually forwarded from vtk-events fired by the proxy manager (look at pqApplicationCore::onStateSaved/onStateLoaded). So you can add an observer to those events on the proxy manager from Python and handle them. However, you cannot really processes the arguments passed to when the event is fired in Python. One workaround would be to create a vtk-class that does the event handling and simply instantiate and initialize it in Python.

[Paraview] How to add plug-in's parameters to ParaView state file
Hello everyone, I have developed exporter plug-in for ParaView with 50+ input parameters. At the moment, I'm setting parameters from dialog I start on menu action and preserve their values between ParaView sessions by using QSettings object. Is it possible to save these values in ParaView state files without changing ParaView main sources?
