[Paraview] RE Outline or Bounding Box?

[Stephane PLOIX]

Hi,

Having a "feature edges" representation would indeed make sense, but it 
would not replace the bounding box representation which is a very 
lightweight representation (in particular, it does not need the 
geometryFilter, which is a costly algorithm) and is needed for large 
models.

Regards,
Stéphane

[Paraview] Outline or Bounding Box?






I would like ParaView to have a bounding box representation and make the 
outline actually be the outline of the model.  Some of my users find the 
current behaviour confusing as we usually deal either structured of 
unstructured grids and, depending on what type of data is loaded, it will 
either display an outline or bounding box.  An outline could easily be 
created for unstructured grids using the filter "Extract Surface" and then 
"Feature edges".  What do other people think about this suggestion?

Paul_______________________________________________
