<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>Hi Boris,<br><br></div>ParaView actually forces the same color scale for all pseudo-colored objects in the render view, as long as the fields selected have the same name (and possibly type). So in short answer, yes what you want is possible and should be done automatically.<br><br></div>In the upper right corner of the view window there are buttons to split the view either vertically or horizontally (choose Render View in this case in the list of views in the newly created view window). You can do this and then view the grid from each file in separate windows to help the comparison. Also, if you right click on one of these views it will come up with a "Link Camera..." button that you can click on. After doing this, you can click on the other view window which will do view point/camera manipulations like zoom, pan, rotate, etc. in both windows in sync so that you can look at the two separate input files similarly in the two separate windows.<br><br></div><div>Let us know if my answer isn't clear or if you have other questions.<br></div><div><br></div>Welcome to ParaView!<br></div>Andy<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Sep 7, 2016 at 10:08 PM, Boris Jagrine <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:bjagrine@national-electric-coil.com" target="_blank">bjagrine@national-electric-coil.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

<p class="MsoNormal">I am new to Paraview and will appreciate an answer to the following question:<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Is it possible to open two separate .vtu files (linear elasticity) each with displacement analysis of a separate body so that the same color scale is used to display the displacements of the two bodies and make comparison obvious?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you.<u></u><u></u></p>
