[Paraview] Adding custom chart view

[Moreland, Kenneth]

Nehme,

It sounds like you do not need to create a custom view.  You should be able to create a filter that generates the data and then use the existing bar chart and x-y plot views.  You can specify a "Hint" in the server manager xml for a filter to tell it which view to go to.  See the implementation of vtkPExtractHistogram and the corresponding ExtractHistogram entry in filters.xml for more details.

Hello,

I'm trying yo create a filter to plot a histogram or a
curve. The output of this filter will look like the one
used for histogram filter.
I read the documentation on the wiki about how to create a
custom view, and I think this is my start point. Is that
true ? if yes, from witch class should myView inherits
from ? pqGenericViewModule ? pqChartLayer ? pqView ? pqxxx
?

How my pqMyView class will be linked to my vtkMyFilter
Class ? how to pass my vtkDataArrays from my vtkMyFilter
class to my pqMyView class ?

Thank you,

Nehme
