[Paraview] FW: adjusting vertical level setting via paraview python script

I verified in the GUI that I can change the level and see it take effect,
so it should work in principle. You might want to open that file in the
paraView GUI and do the same exercise.

In your script a couple of bits looks fishy to me and might cause the
problem.

paraview.simple.NetCDFMPASreader.PointArrayStatus = ['temperature']
paraview.simple.NetCDFMPASreader.ShowMultilayerView = 0
paraview.simple.NetCDFMPASreader.VerticalLevel = '1' *#use = 1 not = '1'*

later

paraview.simple.NetCDFMPASreader.VerticalLevel = 1

just do it one time


I think the above all do something like set propeties of the global
netcdmfmpasreader class, not the one specific instance of that class that
you care about.

# get active source.
# Level2 = paraview.simple.GetActiveSource()
# Level2.VerticalLevel = 1

this is closer, try
level2=paraview.simple.FindSource('X_Y_Z_1LAYER-primal')

or better yet, since it is defined early on just

Layer2 = output00240101_000000nc

Either should give you the specific instance and then you can call
Layer2.VerticalLevel
= 1 on it.
