An example of a compressed *.dat file that’s causing this issue can be downloaded <a href="https://pointwiseenterprise.sharefile.com/d-s9ba1e31b97d404c9" class="">here</a> (~4.4MB). I’m using ParaVIew 5.3.0-219-g24f5a44 under macOS 10.12.4. Note, the file fails to load under ParaView version 4.4 as well. I’ve compressed the *.dat file with gzip for transmission—please unzip it prior to attempting to reproduce the problem in ParaView. Uncompressed it's a 16MB file, and shouldn’t take very long to load… Any ideas what might be the issue? Is there a problem with the file’s format, or is ParaView the culprit?</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Best Regards,</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><br class=""><br class=""><div class="">
