[Paraview] Multiple Pieces in one file

[SamuelKey]

Steve,

I believe the following will work:

1) Place each of your parts in a 'part<n>.vts' file.
2) Create a "mother" file -- myparts.pvd
  (see "paraView Guide," page 177)

For example,

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<VTKFile type="Collection" version="0.1" byte_order="LittleEndian"
compressor="vtkZLibDataCompressor">
  <Collection>
    <DataSet part="0000" file="msh0000.vts" name="The Mesh"/>
    <DataSet part="0001" file="mns0001.vts" name="NSet:0033
Label:OUTPUT_NODES"/>
    <DataSet part="0002" file="mns0002.vts" name="NSet:3002
Label:LEFT_END"/>
    <DataSet part="0003" file="mns0003.vts" name="NSet:3003
Label:RIGHT_END"/>
    <DataSet part="0004" file="mss0004.vts" name="SSet:0200
Label:BAR_1_SURFACE"/>
    <DataSet part="0005" file="mss0005.vts" name="SSet:0300
Label:BAR_2_SURFACE"/>
    <DataSet part="0006" file="mws0006.vts" name="WSet:0100 Label: MPCON4"/>
  </Collection>
</VTKFile>

name="abc" is a very handy, yet-to-be-documented token in
<DataSet ... /> thanks to Brad King.

The Extract Parts filter will let you select the the parts to be
displayed (name="abc" info shows up on the Extract Parts
face sheet).
