[Paraview-developers] PV3 : Combo with point scalars

[Amy Squillacote]

Hi John,

Are you trying to do this through the server manager XML files? If so, 
take a look at the InputProperty and StringVectorProperty for the 
SurfaceVectors source proxy (shown below). This filter only operates on 
point arrays, but you could change the XML to make it only work for cell 
arrays. The InputArrayDomain in the InputProperty requires that the 
input dataset have point arrays (in this case, point vectors). Then the 
ArrayListDomain in the StringVectorProperty points back to the 
InputProperty.

     <InputProperty
        name="Input"
        command="SetInputConnection">
           ...
           <InputArrayDomain name="input_array" attribute_type="point"
                             number_of_components="3"/>
           ...
     </InputProperty>

     <StringVectorProperty
         name="SelectInputVectors"
         command="SetInputArrayToProcess"
         number_of_elements="5"
         element_types="0 0 0 0 2"
         animateable="0">
            <ArrayListDomain name="array_list" attribute_type="Vectors">
              <RequiredProperties>
                 <Property name="Input" function="Input"/>
              </RequiredProperties>
            </ArrayListDomain>
            <Documentation>
              Select the input vector array to process.
            </Documentation>
     </StringVectorProperty>
