[Paraview] How to implement a multiview

[pat marion]

Hi,

Comparative view has two modes- filmstrip and comparative.  In filmstrip
mode, only one variable changes and the views are ordered from left to
right, top to bottom.  In comparative mode, you can specify an X dimension
and a Y dimension and can have one variable change along X and another
change along Y.

Try this for a quick example:

Create sphere source
Convert view to 3D View (Comparative)
Go to the View menu and toggle on the Comparative View Inspector
Change the mode from filmstrip to comparative.
Set 4 x frames and 4 y frames
In Animated Source (X Axis) choose Phi Resolution as the Property To Animate
Likewise, choose Theta Resolution for the Y Axis
Use the timeline widgets below to step the phi and theta resolutions from 3
to 100.
Click the Update Button (if you dont want to click the update button each
time, change the Update Mode combobox from Root to All)

Unforutnately when trying out this demo on my own computer I discovered a
bug where some of the views do not get the correct property value :-(  Let
me know if you have similar problems.
