RES: [Paraview] Saving configuration options...

[Renato N. Elias]

Jean

Thanks a lot, I've just compiled Paraview and changed the byte order default
according to your tip.

I think it would be very useful if Paraview could read some initialization
or script file where users (or Paraview itself) could set some options in
the future...

If you know how to recompile the application, find the file called
readers.xml in the directory Servers/ServerManager/Resources in your own
file system

edit the file and look for the string EnSight

then a few lines below you will find these lines:

     <IntVectorProperty
        name="ByteOrder"
        command="SetByteOrder"
        number_of_elements="1"
        default_values="1" >
       <EnumerationDomain name="enum">
         <Entry value="0" text="BigEndian"/>
         <Entry value="1" text="LittleEndian"/>
       </EnumerationDomain>
     </IntVectorProperty>


just change the default value from 0 to 1 and recompile.
