In 3.8, this will be:
output.PointData.append(inputs[0].Points - inputs[1].Points, 'point_difference')
in the programmable filter. In the Python calculator, it will be:
inputs[0].Points - inputs[1].Points
and you'll choose the name of the array in another entry.
You can do this with the development version if you build it from
source. You will need to compile with Python support and have NumPy
installed.

Hey again,
There may be other ways, too, but you can do this with the Python
Programmable Filter (PPF). To have two inputs to the PPF you need to select
both data sets in the pipeline (on mac it's command-click, others may be
control-click...) and then apply the filter. Here is a sample script which
subtracts the coordinates of the two data sets from each other and makes a
new vector data attribute out of that difference:
# ===
from paraview.vtk import vtkFloatArray
in0 = self.GetInputDataObject(0,0)
in1 = self.GetInputDataObject(0,1)
pti0 = in0.GetPoints()
pti1 = in1.GetPoints()
numPts = in0.GetNumberOfPoints()
vec = vtkFloatArray()
vec.SetName('coordDiff')
vec.SetNumberOfComponents(3)
vec.SetNumberOfTuples(numPts)
for ii in range(numPts):
# compute velocity and put in vec
tmpDiff = [0.0, 0.0, 0.0]
pos1 = pti1.GetPoint(ii)
pos0 = pti0.GetPoint(ii)
for kk in range(len(tmpDiff)):
tmpDiff[kk] = pos1[kk] - pos0[kk]
vec.SetTuple3(ii,tmpDiff[0],tmpDiff[1],tmpDiff[2])
out1 = self.GetOutputDataObject(0)
out1.ShallowCopy(in0)
out1.GetPointData().AddArray(vec)
# ===
This doesn't do any checking for matching IDs of the points or whether both
sets have the same number of points (I have an extended script which searches
for points with matching ID if you need help doing that), but if they really
match it will work. (Others can let you know if there are better ways of
doing this or if I've done anything non-standard in my script.)
Good luck,
-Eric

hi
me again, how do I compare the co-ordinates of two datasets in paraview.. I
have two dataset..of the same set of points but their cordinates differ
slightly. I need the number of these co-ordinates
