[Paraview] Re: [vtkusers] vtkWriter Subclass

[Amy Squillacote]

Hi Mike,

In ParaView, the default representation of a vtkImageData object is 
an outline cube.  If you've gotten this far, you have likely loaded 
your data correctly into ParaView.  To change to something other than 
the wireframe view, go to the Display tab, and change the value in 
the representation menu.  After you loaded your data (and got a 
wireframe cube), did you look at the Information tab to see if the 
meta-data for this vtkImageData object was correct (i.e., bounds, 
extents, spacing, range of values in data array)? Did you try running 
a filter on your data?
