[Paraview] TimestepValues

2012-06-20 Thread Justin Rodriguez
Hi Everyone, I am trying to get the TimestepValues from the SLACDataReader to eventually get the time range/temporal bounds of the data. My code is below but everything I have tried has given an empty array for TimestepValues. Is there something I need to do first before TimestepValues is

[Paraview] Desktop-delivery and LOD settings: no influence?

2012-06-20 Thread Paul Melis
Hi, I'm doing remote rendering with PV 3.14.0, with quite a large set (isosurface of 98M tris) on 16 render nodes, each with a GTX460 and 12 GB RAM (Linux 64-bit cluster btw). This model renders like a dog when interacting. I've checked the subsampling settings, compression settings and LOD

Same result, I see no difference in meshes used during interaction between 10x10x10 and 160x160x160 for LOD Resolution. Just to make sure: - LOD Threshold is checked, set to 0.00 MBytes - Remote Render Threshold is checked, set to 0 MBytes Paul On 06/20/2012 03:28 PM, Utkarsh Ayachit wrote:

Hmm, maybe not a good test, as depending on the sphere resolution a the quadric clustering will produce the same results for a range of dimension settings (i.e. 10^3 and up) On 06/20/2012 03:36 PM, Paul Melis wrote: I actually get the same result when using the builtin server. On 06/20/2012

Does the LOD render use quadric clustering by the way? And if so, should the LOD resolution setting produce the same mesh during interactive rendering as when applying a Quadric Clustering filter to the same input with the same resolution settings? On 06/20/2012 03:40 PM, Paul Melis wrote: Hmm,

Ah, missed that. But my issue is not that the LOD-rendering mesh is the same as the fullres one (it's not, as expected), but that the LOD resolution setting does not seem to influence the LOD mesh in my case. Especially for a very large mesh I would expect 10^3 versus 160^3 to make a whopping

In the file open dialog, simply select the files individually (by opening by the tree) and ParaView will open the files separately. Since you are creating your own custom applicaiton, look at pqLoadDataReaction. You can create your own implementation for the same that creates a separate reader

Are you sure you have some time dependent data ? If it is really the case, you may need to enable something on your reader so if does properly read the time informations. You can give a try by using the trace mechanism in ParaView to see if any other setting to the reader is happening when you
