        <div>Hi,<br>
          <br>
        </div>
        The XML readers and writers don't properly support time so
        currently the best way would be to create a pvd file which would
        contain the time and time step information. I don't know of
        anything in VTK or ParaView that writes out pvd files (I only
        see a vtkPVDReader in ParaView) but the format is meant to be
        simple. I would suggest doing it directly in the Catalyst Python
        script through some Python library as the best workaround for
        now.<br>

              <br>
              Just another quick question. Currently, I am creating a
              series of VTU and VTI files whose names follow the pattern
              mysimulation-t%d. With %d being replaced by an integer
              index identifying the time step. I am about to code a
              simple PVD writer to consolidate the output and also to
              assign the real time step value in seconds instead of
              maintaining this integer index.<br>
              <br>
              It doesn't seem to be very hard to create this PVD file by
              hand, but I was just wondering if there is something in
              the VTK library that could automatically create these
              files for me. I still could not understand how I can
              assign the real time step in seconds to a file, don't know
              if its even possible with VT? files. If this is possible,
              some directions that could help me implement that would be
              very nice!

                            <div dir="ltr">I have doubt about using
                              paraview catalyst from my simulation code.
                              Suppose I created a simple Paraview
                              pipeline containing the TemporalStatistics
                              filter only. 
                              <div><br>
                              </div>
                              <div>Initially, it is not clear for which
                                "dummy" source is adequate for the
                                script. I used a simple programmable
                                source or even a unstructured cell types
                                source to create the python script.
                                Then, I call the script from catalyst in
                                my code like this:<br>
                                <br>
                                for each time step
                                <div>    update grid;</div>
                                <div>    create data description;</div>
                                <div>    call coprocessing method;</div>
                                <div><br>
                                </div>
                                <div>The problem is that I expect the
                                  TemporalStatistics filter to create a
                                  single file containing the statistics
                                  for all the time steps. However, this
                                  approach creates a file for every time
                                  step. What I should do in the catalyst
                                  (or during the script creation) to
                                  have a single output for this filter.</div>
