Like derive one filter from the calculator, including the nice calculator panel on the left, and just automatically do the "extract selection" before applying the calculator</div><div><br></div><div>2. with the "python calculator" I was not successful, and I wonder why!? Because if I applied that python calculator to my original "unstructured grid" data set everything worked fine (so it is not about missing python support!), but if I did the procedure as above, applying the "python calculator" on the extracted data, I always got a message: "AssertionError: Unsupported array type 15". This was independent on what was the expression I tried to apply, even if it was just a constant value! Looking into the source code it looks indeed like a mistake if some column has "type 15": I found only about 10 type definitions at all...</div><div><br></div><div>Regards,</div><div>Cornelis</div></div><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2017-01-17 10:51 GMT+01:00 Andy Bauer <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:andy.bauer@kitware.com" target="_blank">andy.bauer@kitware.com</a>></span>:<br><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>Hi Cornelis,<br><br></div><div>How would you like to select the single or group of values to change? Also, how would you like to change them (e.g. the same transformation for each or each with its own transformation)? These two questions are meant to guide you to do what you want in ParaView.<br></div><div><br></div>You probably want to look at the Python Programmable Filter (<a href="http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Python_Programmable_Filter" target="_blank">http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/<wbr>Python_Programmable_Filter</a>) for changing individual array values. If you are working in serial you may also be able to bring in the entities to change based on a selection. A better solution would be to use the global ids filter, then do a selection on what you want and finally pass that in as a secondary input to the Python Programmable filter. <br><br></div>Developing your own filter is also a possibility.<br><br></div>cheers,<br></div>Andy<br></div><div class="m_686670370789005123HOEnZb"><div class="m_686670370789005123h5"><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Jan 17, 2017 at 1:38 AM, Cornelis Bockemühl <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:cornelis.bockemuehl@gmail.com" target="_blank">cornelis.bockemuehl@gmail.com</a><wbr>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Dear Andy,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for this hint: Indeed I was not fully aware of the way how you can easily add new calculated columns with these two filters!
