I think that's a great fix, Utkarsh! It seems much more useful now since sometimes the selections are obscured by other objects and this allows me to go back and forth between the 3D window and the query dialog without having to re-enter the info. Thanks a lot! -Eric On Mar 3, 2010, at 12:09

Eric, I've committed a fix to allow you to interact with the 3D windows but nothing else while the dialog is open. There are still some kinks esp. with the labels if you change the active view. I am going to iron those out as well, but feel free to give it a try. Utkarsh On Tue, Mar 2, 2010 at 4

Eric, It's that and also the fact the the the complexity if the dialog increases since then it needs to observer removal of source, track active view, track active view changes. What I was playing with is trying to enable only interaction with the view and nothing else, which would overcome these

Hey Utkarsh, That works great -- thanks! Is there an important reason for the Find Data dialog to be modal? I find myself wanting to interact with the render window to see the positions of the selected points, but I'm locked out, and then it's annoying because if I close the dialog and then wa

Thanks, Utkarsh -- I appreciate it. With the way the existing query-based selection framework is implemented, is there any chance of incorporating the chaining of queries to select subsets of subsets? (With my users, I know this is one of the first things they're going to ask me when I show the

Eric, Good catch. I must have missed this one. The problem seems to be that vtkExtractSelectedIds has a stupid limitation where it expects the array types to be same. I am going to look at fixing vtkExtractSelectedIds soon (give me a day or two). Utkarsh On Mon, Mar 1, 2010 at 2:07 PM, Eric E. M

Hey Utkarsh, That's very cool functionality. One part of the interface is either not very intuitive or I'm running into a bug: The "is" or "is one of" operators don't seem to work with anything other than ID or Global ID. If I try to use it, say, on an integer point data attribute and do "attr
