<div dir="ltr">Andy,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for your rapid response. The streamlines do indeed seem to end near interfaces between leaves in the grid, but specifically when they are at different levels in the octree; i.e. when one element has four neighbors across any of its faces. I should be able to give an example of this behavior. But I thought I'd give you this update first. At least most of the times, in the cases that I've been experimenting with this afternoon, the reason for termination is 1/'out of domain'</div><div><br></div><div>I'm using a newish version of paraview (4.4.0) but I'll try on 5.0 soon. Also, I'm not sure that this is important, but he elements are VTK Voxels, not hexahedra.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for your help,</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr">On Tue, Jul 12, 2016 at 2:30 PM Andy Bauer <<a href="mailto:andy.bauer@kitware.com">andy.bauer@kitware.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div>Hi Ethan,<br><br></div>I've been able to use streamlines with a general multiblock data set that uses blanking.
