[Paraview] Learning PV internals helped by the PV-GUI and python

[Sylvester Gerardson]

Robert,

My plan was to use the output of the dump tool as a basis for python script
that would create PNG's from several views, cutplanes, etc.

I've read Servermanager2.pdf and also looked through servermanager.py, but
they don't say anything about creating cutplanes. Information on how to
set/specify the cutfunction would be highly appreciated!

Thank you for your help.

Regards,
Sylvester

What are your plans for the dump tool?

If you are looking for an introduction to writing python scripts for
paraview, I recommend reading the servermanager pdf. This can be found at:
paraview.org/Wiki/images/f/f9/Servermanager2.pdf

If you want something like state saving / loading from python, both of those
options are now aviable with the commands LoadState  / SaveState. Reading
the servermanager.py (found in Utilities/VTKPythonWrapping) will show you
some to of abilities plus it has some great examples.
