<p class="MsoNormal">I see, I read your first email a bit too quickly. So you do see the filter appear in the web ui, but it just doesn't have any effect you can see. A few more questions then: 1) Is there any log output you can share? 2) what version of
paraview are you running? 3) what filter or dataset type are you giving as input to the flying edges filter?<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I’m specifying some plugins to load with Visualizer, and I want to be able to apply filters from these plugins in Visualizer. I’ve copied the

defaultProxies.json</a> file from the ParaView source code and I don’t know how to get ParaView to recognise my plugin filter name.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">For example, I specify on the command line I want to load the default AcceleratedAlgorithms plugin. I want to expose the Flying Edges 3D filter in Visualizer. However, all of the
names I can find related to the Flying Edges 3D filter in its <a href="https://github.com/Kitware/ParaView/blob/master/Plugins/AcceleratedAlgorithms/AcceleratedAlgorithms.xml" target="_blank">
.xml file</a> (e.g. FlyingEdges3D, vtkFlyingEdges3D) do not allow me to use the filter. When I click on the item in the filters pane it does nothing.<u></u><u></u></p>
