[Paraview] Paraview Ensight Reader

[pte at nexgo.de]

Hi,

I am trying to import some data in Ensight case format into ParaView.
Among others (e.g. "vector per node"), my data contains "scalar per
element data". The files are ASCII-files.
Opening the case file in Paraview does not result in any error and
the cell data appears with the other data members in the Properties
tab of the Object Inspector. However, in the Information tab, the
element data does not appear (but e.g. the "vector per node" and also
"scalar per node" data apppears) and I can also not color using the
"scalar per element" data.
I tried it both with the "ensight"-format files as well as with
"ensight gold" format files. Also, I tested it with Paraview 3.4.0
(under both Ubuntu and Windows) and the development version 3.5.0
under Ubuntu. For the ensight format, you can find pieces from my
files below.

I would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks in advance and best regards,

Peter
