Each of my files is one timestep. I trimmed down .pvd file to include only filename and timestep. When I loaded the file in paraview (by open Data), paraview crashed! :-(<br>My files are data_UVWP.72.vtk to data_UVWP.236.vtk. I have pasted my .pvd file. What should I put in part and name tag, if I must, so that paraview does not crash. I am trying different combinations, till now with no success. Do I need to select .pvd from 'Open Data' or 'import package'?
<br>Let me know your comments, they're invaluable to me!<br>thnx<br>Adi<br><br>tag in your pvd file:--><br> <DataSet timestep="0001" part="001" file="fmavto.m001.t001.vtu" name="Asmb:FRAME Part:FRONT Matl:ALUMINUM"/>
