So we instead just got in the habit of looking at individual snap shots and if we wanted to do an animation, we would use the Python trace feature to set up our view and then make some small modifications to the generated trace script. We would wrap all of the contents in a function that took in a file name/number and output an image at the end and then we would write a small driver program that would call that function, looping over our temporal series that way.<br><br>It has the added benefit of running the visualization on a cluster where each process is serial and handles a range of data files. <br><br>Hopefully somebody who has gotten temporal series to work can help you out. If not, I'll be happy to share some example scripts for processing time series data as snapshots using pvpython.<br><br>Tim<br><br><hr id="zwchr"><div style="color:#000;font-weight:normal;font-style:normal;text-decoration:none;font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:12pt;"><b>From: </b>"Jean-Michel" <jm.lucas@gantha.com><br><b>To: </b>paraview@paraview.org<br><b>Sent: </b>Tuesday, March 17, 2015 12:46:08 PM<br><b>Subject: </b>[Paraview] Fetching data from xdmf temporal collection<br><br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I am trying to fetch data out of a xdmf/h5
file.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">My xdmf file is a temporal collection and
the xdmf reader recognizes the time steps (index/values in the information
block).</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">I would like to access the point data for
each time steps. However, I seem to only get one time step when fetching the
point data from the multi-block dataset and I don't know how to iterate over
the different time steps.</span></p>
