<br>
Works for me. My data is an unstructured mesh with 15 float scalars and two float vectors at each cell. There are 193 time steps. The reader is custom but it doesn't seem like that matters.<br>
<br>
I'm using ParaView 2.4.3 on Linux (Redhat Fedora Core 4). You don't mention which version you are using. Maybe older versions have problems?<br>
<br>
The default visual output from CelltoPoint is the outer boundary of the mesh. Could it be that your data changes little at the outer boundary over time? In other words, does, say, an isosurface showing the internal data change with time?<br>
<br>
Or could it be that the visual output from CelltoPoint (the outer boundary) is hiding the filter that you applied? For example, an isosurface will always be inside the outer boundary. Try turning off the display of the CelltoPoint drawing to make sure it isn't hiding what you want to see.<br>
<br>
Let us know if any of the above helps!<br>
