RES: [Paraview] Ensight Gold Converter

[Renato N. Elias]

Hi Ricardo,

I've put some very simple Fortran routines to write Ensight binary files in
the following link:
http://www.nacad.ufrj.br/~rnelias/paraview/EnsightRoutines.zip. There are
other routines available in the maillist. 

Regarding the problems you can face with the Ensight format and ParaView. I
would say that they are only annoying if you're intending to use some
features not fully supported yet. For a fast and easy starting point, the
Ensight's format will surely solve your problems.

Hope it helps

Regards

Renato N. Elias

  I'm writing a filter right now for Ensigth Gold format and I have not been
able to write the binary version of it. any recomendations?

shall we got then to the VTK one's? after all they are Paraview native
stuff...

all the best,
