Animation View is used to set up animations in ParaView. It's is accessible through View | Animation View. This article describes this view and how to use it to create simple animations.
The Animation View is intended to be a replacement for the Animation Inspector in ParaView 3.0. The Animation Inspector will be deprecated in future versions.
User Interface
Figure 1 shows the the animation view. It is a standard dockable widget. There are three major portions to this panel:
- Scene Properties:
- Show/Edit properties associated with the scene which affect the playback/saving animation.
- Animated Parameters:
- Shows the animation tracks for each of the filter/source/camera paramters being animated in this setup.
- Animate more Paramaters:
- Provides means to add animation tracks for other available parameters.
Use Cases
We will now see a few use-cases which will illustrate the use of this panel and each of its components.
Animate Parameters
One of the simplest animation set up is where the user wants to change a parameter on a filter or source through the course of the animation. For this use-case consider the following pipeline:
