ad Cory's response: I totally agree, seems to be a classic thing in rendering and makes total sense to me. However, strange is that this happens only for the right half of the ellipsoid. Any ideas on that?</div>

ad Sam's and Ken's response: I was thinking about doing that in Matlab during generation, but thanks for pointing out that I can do it pretty straight forward in Paraview directly, makes things easier.<br>

Again, I think it is just a little bit strange that the rendering problem occurs only on one half of the ellipsoid, maybe someone has experienced something similar? Thanks!<br>

<div>If you want to use this approach, it is probably easier to use the transform filter and scale by 0.99 than use the calculator. <br>

Assuming your x,y,z-origin is at the center of the ellipsoid, and you are using PV version4.3.1, you might be able to do the following:
<br>
<br>
If you want to display these two objects at the same time, use the "eyeball" in the Pipeline Browser to turn off the hex mesh, then use the Calculator filter just on the quad mesh to shrink its x,y,z-coordinates by, say, 0.99. This will "pull" the quad mesh
just inside the hex mesh. You can then do whatever variable display you like on the objects.<br>
<br>
If you are going to this display several times, the pipeline can be saved with Save State.<br>

<p>Hello Community,<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I have a question concerning rendering in Paraview (Version 4.2.0). <span style="font-size:10pt">I</span><span style="font-size:10pt"> have two </span><span style="font-size:10pt">.vtk files: i) an ellipsoidal volume geometry of hexahedral cells</span><span style="font-size:10pt"> (cell
type = </span><span style="font-size:10pt">12</span><span style="font-size:10pt">) and ii) the internal surface of the ellipsoidal geometry represented using </span><span style="font-size:10pt">quadrilateral cells (cell type = 9</span><span style="font-size:10pt">).
The first one is </span>colored<span style="font-size:10pt"> grey in the attached image, while the latter one is displayed in blue. </span><span style="font-size:10pt">Opening both of them at the same time leads to a quite confusing representation, which I
don't really understand.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt"><br>
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10pt">In the image attached the quadrilateral surface was opened first followed by the hexahedral volume. So I can understand why Paraview renders the left part in the color of the volume, but I do not get why it splits the rendering
and is checkered on the right side? Is this an intended behavior or might I have made a mistake? I checked the coordinates of the points in both files and they are identical. Thanks!</span></p>
