[Paraview-developers] Using TIME_LABEL_ANNOTATION

[Michael Reuter]

Hi,

I'm trying to use the 
vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::TIME_LABEL_ANNOTATION() property in my 
reader plugin via ParaView 3.98.0 using the vtkShearedCubeSource.cxx as 
the example. I'm getting a good string to the property and the 
Information tab in the properties panel shows the new label name I 
provided. However, the pqAnimationTimeToolbar widget in the GUI is not 
showing the new label. The example ShearedCube source plugin implies 
that the new label should be shown there. I tried to make sure it wasn't 
my plugin so I added 
vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::TIME_LABEL_ANNOTATION() calls to the 
vtkExodusIIReader.cxx before the 
vtkStreamingDemandDrivenPipeline::TIME_STEPS() calls. Using the can.ex2 
file, I see that the information tab has the new label I provided but 
the pqAnimationTimeToolbar widget doesn't change. Is this a bug or am I 
missing an extra step that would allow my plugin change the GUI widget 
like the ShearedCube source does?

Thanks,
M
