<P><SPAN LANG="de-ch"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Hello,</FONT></SPAN>
</P>
<P><SPAN LANG="de-ch"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">I would like to visualize a series of vector fields on an unstructured grid which represent simulation data at different points in time. Currently the data is stored as separate VTK legacy files in ASCII text.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="de-ch"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Ideally I would like to quickly change to any point in time and see the corresponding field. Also I would like to animate the field by iterating through the time steps (possibly using interpolation).</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="de-ch"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">In ParaView2 it was possible to load the vtk files as timesteps using the "Timesteps" button in the parameters tab of the VTK reader.</FONT></SPAN></P>
<P><SPAN LANG="de-ch"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">In ParaView3 it is not obvious to me how the load the timesteps data.</FONT></SPAN>
</P>
<P><SPAN LANG="de-ch"><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Arial">Any help would be appreciated!</FONT></SPAN>
