<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>Hello,<br><br>When you are using ParaView in client-server mode, OpenGL is needed on the client to perform either:<br></div><ul><li> local rendering of the geometry processed on the server - this is the case if geometry to display is below the "remote rendering" threshold defined in <i>Edit/Settings/Render View/Remote Render Threshold</i>. In this case the geometry obtained at the end of the processing pipeline (ie in output of the ParaView sources/filters) is gathered (in case of a parallel server) and send back to the client for OpenGL rendering. This allows a more interactive visualization in case the data is small enough to be handled by the client.</li></ul></div><ul><li>display the picture of the remote rendered images - this happens when geometry size is bigger than the previously mentioned threshold. In this case, the interactions (camera position etc.) are transferred to the server node(s), then OpenGL rendering is performed on each node of the server and finally if server is parallel (more than 1 processor), the final image is obtain by compositing of depth and color images of all processors and finally gathered before being sent to the client for display.</li></ul><br></div>Hope it is clear.<br><br></div>Best,<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><b>Joachim Pouderoux</b><font size="2">, <font size="1">PhD</font></font><br><blockquote style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><font size="1"><i>Technical Expert - Scientific Computing Team</i></font><br><b><font size="1"><a href="http://www.kitware.fr" target="_blank">Kitware SAS</a></font></b><br></blockquote>
