I’ve tried to follow the process that is explained on the wiki (Caution-<a href="http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D">http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D</a> < Caution-<a href="http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D">http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D</a> >
), but I haven’t been able to get ParaView to render offscreen. I don’t have build errors, but when I run something that saves a screenshot I still see a window pop up on my screen. Would anyone be willing to share their configuration script/command that they
use for compiling ParaView with osMESA? <br><br>
Also – If I have a python script that creates a screenshot of some geometry, do I need to edit it in any way before running it with a version of ParaView that uses osMesa? Or is all of that handled behind the scenes?<br><br><br>
Thank you,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Chris N<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div></div></span></body></html>
