[Paraview] Tiled Displays

[Michael Gronager]

Hi ParaViewers...

I have made a translator between vtk and OpenSceneGraph
(www.openscenegraph.org),
so that vtk actors can be displayed as OSG Geodes. The main purpose is to
get a better
and more flexible display than that ParaView can offer, enabling cluster
support (such that
2x4 PCs e.g. can render each (stereo) side in a 4 sided CAVE). I have
already experimented
a little with ParaViews Tiled display support, but have found that it
doesn't work on windows(?)
and can't see from the manual how it distributes each tile and how you
specify which computer
is connected to which part of your tiled display.

What is currently beeing done on this in ParaView? Is CAVE support (via a PC
cluster) on its way?
or is my OSG coupling welcomed? Would it be easier to just use the existing
framework in ParaView
using MPI to do the job?
