<p>Hello Dave,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I appreciate your feedback. I was hesitant to try the newest version (5.2.0 Windows 64 bit build for me) since I read that there was a new backend which changed the way the vector format was being output, I wanted to go for something more "proven" with 4.4
=D</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Still I went ahead and downloaded Paraview 5.2.0 64 bit Windows build. Interestingly I was met with the following warning message</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>"<span style="font-size: 12pt;">ERROR: In C:\bbd\df0abce0\source-paraview\VTK\Rendering\OpenGL2\vtkWin32OpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line 697 </span><span style="font-size: 12pt;">vtkWin32OpenGLRenderWindow (0000000007F54CB0): We have determined that your graphics system

<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Thankfully I have the latest Intel graphics driver installed so I'm hoping for the best.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br>
</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 12pt;">I try to export scene with the cylinder source as I described in my first e-mail, I save it to .svg format, unchecking the Rasterize 3D geometry. This time Paraview does not crash, however upon opening the .svg file I find
that the content is an embedded image, not a vector graphic, that is, unchecking the Rasterize 3D geometry option gives the same result as when this option is checked.</span></p>

<div dir="ltr">I just grabbed the 4.4 release on linux and it works fine, so it sounds like something specific to the windows builds.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>4.4 is quite dated at this point. Do you still see this issue on newer versions of paraview?</div>

<p>Hello all,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I want to export a paraview scene to a vector graphic format but for some reason Paraview crashes during the operation.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>The version that I am running is from the installation file <span>ParaView-4.4.0-Qt4-<wbr>Windows-64bit.exe. I have tried the export operation on two different machines, one with Windows 10, the other with Windows 7, with the same result.</span></p>
<p><span><br>
</span></p>
<p><span>The most straightforward way to reproduce my problem is the following: from the Sources menu I create a cylinder with default height 1 and radius 0.5. I then go to File -> Export scene..., I type a filename to save to, I tried selecting formats .eps,
.svg and .pdf all with the same result, then in the "Export Options" window that pops up, I uncheck the Rasterize 3D geometry option, click save, and I get the "paraview.exe" has stopped working message (actually I just tried to save with the Rasterize 3D
geometry option checked, and that also crashes paraview).</span></p>
<p><span><br>
</span></p>
<p><span>Has anyone encountered similar behavior? Any help is appreciated.</span></p>
