Nope, the data is then nearly empty (<1kByte), hiere the vti writer output:

<VTKFile type="ImageData" version="1.0" byte_order="LittleEndian" header_type="UInt64">
  <ImageData WholeExtent="0 -1 0 -1 0 -1" Origin="0 0 0" Spacing="1 1 1">
    <Piece Extent="0 -1 0 -1 0 -1"                                                    >
      <PointData Scalars="21745593">
        <DataArray type="UInt8" Name="21745593" format="appended" RangeMin="1e+299"               RangeMax="-1e+299"              offset="0"                   />
      </PointData>
      <CellData>
      </CellData>
    </Piece>
  </ImageData>
  <AppendedData encoding="raw">
   _        
  </AppendedData>
</VTKFile>

Here the mhd header which I usually prefer, the “DimSize” is 0,0,0:
ObjectType = Image
NDims = 3
BinaryData = True
BinaryDataByteOrderMSB = False
CompressedData = True
TransformMatrix = 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1
Offset = 0 0 0
CenterOfRotation = 0 0 0
ElementSpacing = 1 1 1
DimSize = 0 0 0
AnatomicalOrientation = ???
ElementType = MET_UCHAR
ElementDataFile = test.zraw

OK. That's weired, your VTI is correct.
And what if you save the output of your filter/reader with ParaView "Save Data"? Is data correctly saved and reloaded correctly?

i have uploaded the vti onto
https://expirebox.com/download/60e7c1e8d177f282ae90d42f75e5ae50.html
the link is 48h accessible
 
when I load the vti into paraview everything is visualized correctly

Sorry for my late reply:
 
“21745593” is correct, that’s the UID string of the sensor/camera which generates the vtkImagedata, I set the string from its SDK…. I will try writing the vti file for you….

Hmm sorry if I had took a closer look I would have seen that AllocateScalars set a default name "ImageScalars" to the scalar array.
Then don't know what you did but the print says that the name of your array is "21745593" which is quite strange. Is it what you did?
Could you write your "output" image data to a .VTI file using a vtkXMLImageDataWriter after initializing it in your RequestData
function and see if you can load in with PV and view it? Share it if you can't.
Best,

Hi
 
Good try but does not effect anything except the string in paraview’s combo box. The strange thing is that I also cannot see anything in spreadsheet view (empty cell and point data)… but on information tab point data and cell data is there….

Hi Gerald,
Not sure it is the only issue but please try giving a name to the output scalar arrays.
ParaView won't make visible arrays which don't have a name.
Example:
  output->GetPointData()->GetScalars()->SetName("values");
Best,

Hi

I programmed successfully a plugin source wich generates a vtkImageData output and made it the same way as on my 3d cloud plugins of vtkPolyData. The source is inherited from vtkImageAlgorithm and only contains one output with unsigned char array and one component.

In the request data function of the filter I currently have a very dummy:

output->SetDimensions(oData.imgSizeX, oData.imgSizeY, 1);
output ->AllocateScalars(VTK_UNSIGNED_CHAR, 1);
 memcpy(output ->GetScalarPointer(), &oData.imgData[0], oData.imgSizeX* oData.imgSizeY*sizeof(unsigned char));

in paraview I see in the information tab that  I have an uniform rectilinear grid with 1917201 cells and 1920000 points (image is 1600*1200px). In data Arrays I get an "ImageScalars" of unsigned char and a correct range of my memcopy data (my min max range is not 0,255 so data seems to be there)...

the problem is that I cannot see anything in the render view, any suggestions what I am making wrong? I tested all representation (slice, surface, outline, on Solid Color and on my array), never see anything.....

I also compared the Information tab on a loaded jpeg image and cannot see any difference (which is rendered in render view except the Array's string name), by the way: can I disable "MapScalars" by default?

I am using pv5.2
