Re: [Paraview] Script driven paraview
Utkarsh: Thanks! Works! I had tried that: I thought it had not worked, because it (python?, pvpython?) did not print to the screen from a test script. Is there a way to print info to the screen (or to a specified file)? When I use Run Script (to run show_vtu.py) from the python shell that is started when Tools - Python Shell is manually selected, prints to the screen work.

Re: [Paraview] Script driven paraview
Hi Tim, ParaView reassigns sys.stdout so that output can be routed to the ParaView python console window. Your script could set stdout back to the original value: import sys sys.stdout = sys.__stdout__ sys.stderr = sys.__stderr__ For documentation, see: http://docs.python.org/2/library/sys.html#sys.stdout Pat On Fri, May 10, 2013 at 1:40 AM, Timothy Cale drtsc.p...@gmail.com wrote: Utkarsh: Thanks!

[Paraview] Script driven paraview
I would like to display a set of meshes that result from a (bash) script driven set of simulations and meshing steps.

In an attempt to automate the visialization, I wrote a bash script with the two relevant lines being: paraview /dev/null pvpython show_vtu.py This generates non-persistent, non-interactive images that I expect - though it would be good to know if there is a way to make such images persistent and interactive.
