[Paraview] vtk renderer question
Hi All:
I have a vtk renderer in a ParaViewWeb application. I create it and then
attach it to a container for display using the setContainer() method.
this.renderers.push(VtkRenderer.newInstance({
client: this.model.pvwClient,
viewId: result,
}) );
this.renderers[this.renderers.length - 1].setContainer(
document.getElementById(container));
This renders fine, and I can see the I created and the
inside it that appears to be the vtkRenderer.
When I render the container invisible (through the click of a user button)
in the render function of its container, it disappears obediently, but when
I make it visible again, the canvas inside my container is missing. Not
zero size, just not present. I tried explicitly calling the render() method
of the vtkRenderer object, but that doesn't seem to do anything.
Here's what I'm doing:
{
this.rendererTwoVisible = !this.rendererTwoVisible;
if (this.rendererTwoVisible) this.renderers[1].render(); //
Doesn't do anything.
}}>
...
{ this.rendererTwoVisible ? (
) : null }
I feel like there is a render method I should be calling directly
somewhere, but can't figure out what or where that should be. Any
suggestions welcome,
Thank you,
-Tom

Re: [Paraview] paraviewweb, linked views, mouse handler
Got it. I had misunderstood that message to only refer to the PVW changes.
I found the protocol.py file and made the change and it seems to work fine
now.
Thank you,

For those who are interested, it involves changing the
/Applications/ParaView-5.5.2.app/Contents/Python/paraview/web/protocols.py
file like this, around line 605:
if not realViewId in self.trackingViews:
observerCallback = lambda *args, **kwargs:
self.pushRender(realViewId)
-startCallback = lambda *args, **kwargs:
self.startViewAnimation()
-stopCallback = lambda *args, **kwargs: self.stopViewAnimation()

self.startViewAnimation(realViewId)
+stopCallback = lambda *args, **kwargs:
self.stopViewAnimation(realViewId)

tagStart =
self.getApplication().AddObserver('StartInteractionEvent', startCallback)

Re: [Paraview] vtk renderer
Ok, turns out this is a CSS question. Table-layout: 'fixed' is the answer
(in the display: 'table' div), in case someone else is ever wondering why
their cells grow but do not shrink. Sorry for the extra traffic.

Re: [Paraview] vtk renderer
Hi Sebastien:
I'm afraid I don't understand what you're saying here. Why would the
container grow due to the setup of my css? I thought the way it works is
that I resize the window, and SIzeHelper.onSizeChange() gets called. I use
that function to call .resize() on the renderers and the vertical works
perfectly, but the horizontal only goes one direction.
Here's the entire hierarchy. There is no external CSS, so this is
everything. I went back and tried to make the height and width parallel,
set the same way. What I observe is that as I change the window size, the
height (the number '686' in the image) changes when I make the window
smaller or larger, but the width (the number '565') only changes when I
make the window wider. When I make the window narrower I have to refresh
the page to get the new width and then it looks right. Can you identify
what isn't the same between width and height in my hierarchy?
Thanks,
-Tom

Re: [Paraview] vtk renderer
Hi Sebastien:
Looks like this:
Another data point: when I shrink or grow the window in the vertical, the
*height* of the canvas element changes in both directions, but the width
only changes when I grow the window and not when I shrink it. Maybe what
you're saying though is that I should travel up the hierarchy and see where
I'm setting heights and widths in non-parallel ways?
Thank you,
-Tom

[Paraview] vtk renderer
Hi All:
I'm not sure if this is a VTK question or a Paraview question, so apologies
in advance. In a ParaViewWeb application, I have a vtkRenderer in a div in
another div, etc. The vtkRenderer seems to adjust when I make the window
it's in bigger or the container, but it does not resize when I make the
window smaller. Using the browser's element viewer, I can see the
object inside, and see its width reach when I expand elements and refuse to
react when I contract the window or container.
When I create the vtk renderer, I use this code:
this.renderers.push(VtkRenderer.newInstance({
client: this.model.pvwClient,
viewId: result,
}) );
... and then later...
SizeHelper.onSizeChange(() => {
this.renderers[0].resize();
this.renderers[1].resize();
});
SizeHelper.startListening();
I invoke the SizeHelper.triggerChange() method regularly and it seems to
work, though again only to make the renderer bigger.
Should I be resizing these with a direct call to some method? What is the
way I should be doing this?
Thank you,
-Tom

[Paraview] seeking pvpython debugging hints
Hello all: Does anyone have helpful hints to offer about how to debug errors like these? Some array of mine is out of range, but I don't know what array it's talking about, and don't really see how to find out. To my knowledge the change in my code that triggered this has nothing to do with any array. My guess is the "Failed to determine the LookupTable" is the result of the error after it, since it is sort of a common denominator among errors I see. Does that sound right? Is there a way to enable more debug information or more verbose error messages? Thank you, -Tom Warning: In /Users/kitware/dashboards/buildbot-slave/8275bd07/build/superbuild/paraview/src/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/Rendering/vtkSMPVRepresentationProxy.cxx, line 633 vtkSMPVRepresentationProxy (0x7fa0ae89ce00): Failed to determine the LookupTable being used.

[Paraview] control comparative render in python?
Hi All: I have a paraviewweb application that accepts a bunch of options and produces a nice visualization supplied by a pvpython server -- thank you all for the help you've offered so far. Everyone is happy with this, but of course the problem with that is now they want more. I want to have two windows, side by side, rendering different views of the same data, or the same view of two different data sources, side by side, ideally always with the same camera position. This seems like exactly what the comparative render view was built for. Unfortunately, I can't find how to control that view through python. The Trace functionality seems indifferent to whatever I do on the comparative view inspector window, and I can't find any more than a mention in the Guide. What is the python that corresponds to setting the MxN size of the comparison and how do I assign a render to some given sector of my comparison? Is there more to it than that? Thank you, -Tom ___ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Search the list archives at: http://markmail.org/search/?q=ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: https://public.kitware.com/mailman/listinfo/paraview
[Paraview] Failed to determine the LookupTable being used
Hello all:
I have a trace from a simple contour that I drew on a data set, and there
are parts of it that I don't understand. Here it is, with some question
numbers:
from paraview.simple import *
data = EnSightReader(CaseFileName='/my/data/file.case')
renderView1 = GetActiveViewOrCreate('RenderView')
dataDisplay = Show(data, renderView1)## 1
dataDisplay.Representation = 'Surface'
renderView1.ResetCamera()
dataDisplay.SetScalarBarVisibility(renderView1, True)
renderView1.Update()
pressureLUT = GetColorTransferFunction('pressure') ## 2
contour1 = Contour(Input=data)
contour1.ContourBy = ['POINTS', 'uds_0_scalar']
contour1.Isosurfaces = [500.0]
contour1Display = Show(contour1, renderView1)
contour1Display.Representation = 'Surface'
Hide(data, renderView1)
contour1Display.SetScalarBarVisibility(renderView1, True) ## 3
renderView1.Update()
My questions:
1. Why do I have to "Show" the raw data right after it's read? I almost
never actually want to do that. I just want to show the contour. Showing
and Hiding the raw data seems like a waste of cycles, but when I remove
references to dataDisplay, I get an error: "Failed to determine the
LookupTable being used." which seems oddly unrelated to what I did.
2. Where does this value get used? It doesn't seem to me that it is being
used, but it seems related to the last and the next question:
3. When I choose different scalar values to contour, I often see the
same "Failed to determine the LookupTable being used." here. There seem to
be some limitations on what scalars I can use, but what are they and where
can I read more about these missing lookup tables?
Thank you,
-Tom

Brilliant. That worked, thank you, and most of the image changes are
updated with one click of the button rather than one for the control and
one click on the canvas. However, I often (not always) get this:

I imagine this is related to the fact that the control that is invoked here
is a slider, and I set it up so that when the slider is moved, it launches
a thread that watches to see when the slider stops moving before doing an
update of the model view. So it probably has something to do with the fact
that the InvokeEvent('UpdateEvent') call happens in a thread. Maybe I
shouldn't do that? The other renderer, with ViewPortImageDelivery, seemed
to handle this fine, though you had to click in the window to see the
change, which is what I'm trying to fix.
Thank you,

[Paraview] ParaviewWeb server / client mismatch

Re: [Paraview] immediate update
That makes sense. I'm using RemoteRenderer, like this:
import RemoteRenderer from 'paraviewweb/src/NativeUI/Canvas/RemoteRenderer';
...
smartConnect.onConnectionReady((connection) => {
model.pvwClient =
ParaViewWebClient.createClient(connection,
[
'MouseHandler',
'ViewPort',
'ViewPortImageDelivery',
],
amsProtocols);
const renderer = new RemoteRenderer(model.pvwClient);
...
When I look in my paraviewweb/src/NativeUI/Renderers directory, I don't see
VtkRenderer, only NativeImageRenderer and RemoteRendererStatsTable. I see
VtkRenderer in the other place, though. Are they the same? Do I use them
the same way as RemoteRenderer?
Thank you,

[Paraview] simple ParaViewWeb example
Hi All: I had a pretty bad time trying to put together the bones of a ParaViewWeb client and server, so have taken a few crusts of bread and gone back to try to leave a trail of crumbs that others can follow. Please find a working simple example at: https://github.com/tsgouros/ParaViewWeb-SimpleDemo It doesn't do much, but it works over here, and has some instructions that I hope will be of service to the next person trying to follow this trail. For the experts out there: it would be great if you wanted to look this over and tell me what could be improved to make it a better illustration of best practices. Even better if you want to make such suggestions in the form of pull requests. For example I can't seem to make all the warnings go away for the npm install, and I'm not sure whether the RPC protocol only transmits strings or whether type conversions can happen on the client side. Nor am I sure that the pvwclient is made available in the smoothest possible way, and so on. Your contributions are welcome.

[Paraview] how to make a new protocol
Hello all: Can someone describe the steps necessary to create and use a web socket connection between a Paraviewweb client and a pvpython server? I am not having much luck finding the documentation for registerVtkWebProtocol() which appears to be an important part of the process. Google only helps me find pvw-visualizer.py, which I'm sure is useful code, but I'm having a hard time making much sense of it as an example. I would appreciate even just being pointed to the vtk python code, but I'll take any pointers you can offer.

should I call them?), according to the discussion at this link. Some people
here might find it familiar:

Re: [Paraview] connecting buttons and python
Thank you that's very helpful. Where will I find how to define the
protocols on the python side? I've only found a wslink example that looks
like this:
from wslink import register as exportRPC
from wslink.websocket import LinkProtocol
class myProtocol(LinkProtocol):
def __init__(self):
super(myProtocol, self).__init__()
@exportRPC("myprotocol.testButton")
def testButton(self, nothing):
print("*** HELP ")
Pvpython isn't happy with this, but I'm not sure where to look for the
right way to do it.
Thank you,
-Tom

[Paraview] connecting buttons and python
Hello all: Got some nice looking buttons and widgets, but I can't seem to find examples of how to deliver the button press or other widget output to my pvpython server. I imagine the steps are: 1. Create a protocol on the python side. Can I use wslink.register, or is there paraviewweb functionality I should be using? 2. Create a matching protocol on the js side, with ParaviewWebClient.createClient(), but I'm not seeing how to link the protocol to a function that can be linked to a button press. Also, this page, found via a google search, seems potentially useful, but gives me a 404. https://kitware.github.io/paraviewweb/api/ParaViewWebClient.html Many thanks, -Tom ___ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Search the list archives at: http://markmail.org/search/?q=ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: https://public.kitware.com/mailman/listinfo/paraview
Re: [Paraview] Using ParaviewWeb examples
Hi Sebastien:
I suspected that and also tried downgrading to webpack 1, but then loading
paraviewweb won't work because lots of its dependencies require webpack
versions up to 2.2.0. (babel-loader, expose-loader, schema-utils,
worker-loader, several others) It tells you to load the peer dependencies
by hand, but that seems not to work for paraviewweb, though I'm probably
misunderstanding something.
I will forget the examples and try building up a webpack from scratch, but
there are a few things in the webpack config that make me nervous about the
prospects:
1. The alias PVWStyle.
2. The "postcss: [require('autoprefixer')... ]
3. 'loader: "expose?MyWebApp"'.
All of these seem like maybe they are going to be required for some parts
of paraviewweb. The current version of webpack seems to choke on them all,
and I won't know what to replace them with. Any advice?
Thank you.
-Tom

Re: [Paraview] Using ParaviewWeb examples
I tried that page twice and get errors about missing fix-autobahn, and when I removed that from the package.json, webpack complained about missing eslint (I installed eslint, but it doesn't change), and then errors saying "Webpack has been initialised using a configuration object that does not match the API schema" and errors about the output directory needing to be an "**absolute path** (required)".

[Paraview] Using ParaviewWeb examples
