    Hi Andy,<br>
    <br>
    I followed the directions, and submitted a patch (19 days ago), but
    haven't heard anything back.<br>
    <br>
    In GitLab the merge requests counter is at 0, but when I try to
    create a new merge request from my commit, it tells the merge
    request already exists. Is it being reviewed somewhere? Thanks!<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

            This patch makes sense. It would need a test if you want to
            get your changes into VTK. The directions for contributing

              What about simply adding another mode, e.g.
              SetTensorModeToComputeGreenLagrangeStrain, to the
              vtkCellDerivatives filter? Would the attached patch make
              sense?<br>

                      Changing the name of the
                      SetTensorModeToComputeStrain method to something
                      else would break backward compatibility which is
                      generally avoided in VTK. Other options for this
                      include deriving a class to compute non-linear
                      strain from vtkCellDerivatives if it shares enough
                      of the algorithm with the linearized version or
                      maybe just creating a new filter.<br>

                      <br>
                      I realize that the vtkCellDerivatives filter, when
                      SetTensorModeToComputeStrain is activated, returns
                      the symmetric part of the gradient of the input
                      vector field, which is the linearized strain
                      tensor, i.e., not a proper measure of deformation
                      when large displacements are involved. Would that
                      make sense to have two different modes,
                      SetTensorModeToComputeLinearizedStrain or
                      SetTensorModeToComputeSymmetricGradient, and
                      SetTensorModeToComputeStrain or
                      SetTensorModeToComputeGreenLagrangeStrain? Thanks!<br>
