Re: [Paraview] Link between objects

[Riccardo Rossi]

Hi Mathieu.



I gave the box a try and works indeed.



It would be nice though being able to link “fully” any other object as clips or 
slices when comparing multiple dataset and spare the user from changing 
manually the properties of the filters in each dataset.



As for the bugtracker, I’ve already opened a ticket concerning an issue when 
linking the proxy property “plane” of the “Plot over intersection curve” 
filter, which systematically crashes.



Thanks for the feedback,



Riccardo

Hello Riccardo

It should work and it does in most cases (not in yours though).

You can try the following.

 - Create a Box

 - Create another Box

 - "Object" Link both box

 - Change a parameter in one box, Apply

 - Same parameter is changed in the other box as well

As for your example with the slice (or clip, or any filter using a 
ProxyProperty) this does not seems to work and you indeed need to link the 
proxy property itself in order to obtain this.

In terms of usability, it means that "Object" Link will not go down the object 
tree visible in the manager, but only link all property at the level of the 
object.

I am unsure if this is a missing feature or a bug, in any case, feel free to 
open an issue in the bugtracker, I see that you've already created an account.

Thanks for your report.

Regards,




Mathieu Westphal

Hi.



I’m a little confused about how links between objects are supposed to work.



For example, if I create two clip filters and make a link between the “plane” 
property of the two objects, everything works fine.



However, if I make the link between the two objects I would expect all the the 
properties to be updated automatically in the child object (as reported in the 
wiki) but this time the link seems not to work at all.


Am I missing something?



Thanks,



Riccardo
