Dear Kenneth,<br>Thank you very much for your response. For certain simulations this feature is <br>more useful. At present I am using some other visualization package, which <br>supports rescaling the color map values when time step changes<br>and it looks better for my simulation results. Just I would like to know<br>whether paraview developers had some idea to include this option in future<br>releases. <br><br><br>Nagaiah<br><br><br><b><i>"Moreland, Kenneth" <kmorel@sandia.gov></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=us-ascii"> <meta name="Generator" content="Microsoft Word 11 (filtered medium)"> <!--[if !mso]> <style> v\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} o\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} w\:* {behavior:url(#default#VML);} .shape {behavior:url(#default#VML);} </style> <![endif]--> <style> <!-- /* Font
