I followed your advice and indeed: Once I store the data loaded in PV 5.3 as a .vtu file, I am able to open it in PV 5.1.2 and it displays correctly.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Furthermore, I think I have identified the culprit: It seems to be a problem with the OpenGL2 backend, which seems to be the default now and which I forgot about. Once I reinstalled ParaView with -DVTK_RENDERING_BACKEND=OpenGL, things resumed to work as usual. Now this raises other questions:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">What could create the problem that everything compiles and runs just fine, except for the visualization part? Maybe our OpenGL2 version is too old?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Regards,</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Michael</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">P.S.: Just in case it still might be helpful (although I doubt it, since it seems to be related to the rendering backend), I uploaded the two files generated once by ParaView 5.1.2 (OpenGL) and ParaView 5.3.0 (OpenGL2):</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""><div id="MailButlerAttachmentLinkList" class=""><br class=""><hr class=""><ul style="padding-left:0px;" class=""><li style="background:url('https://www.feingeist.io/fg-library/file-icon.php?ext=vtu') no-repeat;background-size:32px 32px;padding:1px 36px 2px;min-height:36px;list-style-type:none;" class=""><a href="https://rwth-aachen.sciebo.de/index.php/s/2jClJdm5fCTST33" data-uploaded="true" class="">monopole.pv512.vtu</a><br class=""><small style="color:#777;" class="">(41 MB)</small></li><li style="background:url('https://www.feingeist.io/fg-library/file-icon.php?ext=vtu') no-repeat;background-size:32px 32px;padding:1px 36px 2px;min-height:36px;list-style-type:none;" class=""><a href="https://rwth-aachen.sciebo.de/index.php/s/yyZDm6pUrIuut1c" data-uploaded="true" class="">monopole.pv530.vtu</a><br class=""><small style="color:#777;" class="">(41 MB)</small></li></ul><br class=""></div><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Jun 2, 2017, at 01:15, Utkarsh Ayachit <<a href="mailto:utkarsh.ayachit@kitware.com" class="">utkarsh.ayachit@kitware.com</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" class=""><div dir="ltr" class="">Odd. A good starting point is to save out the data opened in older and newer versions as one of the standard supported file formats and compare that they are indeed what's expected. At that point, if it possible to share the exported dataset (that way I won't need your plugin code), we could see if I can reproduce the issue and see what could be going on.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Utkarsh<br class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div></div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br class=""><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jun 1, 2017 at 5:38 PM, Schlottke-Lakemper, Michael <span dir="ltr" class=""><<a href="mailto:m.schlottke-lakemper@aia.rwth-aachen.de" target="_blank" class="">m.schlottke-lakemper@aia.rwth-aachen.de</a>></span> wrote:<br class=""><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="word-wrap:break-word" class="">Hi folks,<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">We just updated our local ParaView installation from 5.1.2 to 5.3.0 and also re-compiled our custom plugins. Now we experience the issue that for some of our reader plugins, after loading a solution/grid file we can actually see the grid and its cells, but the data is not correctly visualized. That is, when looking at the data range in the inspector (or at the range of the legend), one can see the correct minimum/maximum values and if when applying the threshold filter, it cuts the correct cells.
