Greetings,
I have a number of pvts (and associated vts) files numbered
fields.00000.pvts
fields.00010.pvts
fields.00020.pvts
...
I can read them in individually, but I can not, for the life of me,
figure out how to animate them with the 3.2.1 Linux binary. I try to
select them all in the file open dialog, but I only end up getting one
of the files (fields.00000.pvts). Then, in the Animation Inspector,
the only options I am given for "Property to Animate" is Cell Arrays
and Point Arrays.
I was able to animate with the 2.6.1 release because it automatically
figured out that there were multiple time steps. With 3.0.2, it is
mostly the same as 3.2.1 except I now get an option of "File Name" in
"Property to Animate". Selecting that does not give me anything,
though. If I add a keyframe, then trying to run the animation crashes
the 3.0.2 executable. I don't know if it matters, but multiple
timesteps will not fit in memory.
I feel like I am missing some really basic step.
Thanks,
Walter Landry
