[Paraview] How to render a vtk object on Paraview GUI

[young_jh123]

Thanks a lot!  I am so glad that someone pointd out what my next step to learn about Paraview.

 Actually the code I type is Python,not c++

plato = vtkPlatonicSolodSource()
plate.SetSolidType(3)

I use the Paraview Client-Server mode ,and want to do some parallel computing.The Server is Linux cluster,and The client is Windows.
I want to know if I can just use  python script on client to manager the server how to parallel computing.I means if I can use the client 
python script to import MPI function ,and then let the servar do parallel jobs.I have installed the paraview enable MPI on Server.If 
the client python script could not  fulfill that job.Should I write a plugin on Server use C++,and then in there I use the MPI? 
Sorry for my ugly English .May you have a good day!

Hi,

find attached an xml that exposes the vtkPlatonicSolidSource in the paraview sources menu. Load it from the tools->"Manage plugins" menu. At least it will allow you to create a platonic solid in paraview GUI. But I don't understand why you want to ask for it in C++.
Maybe you want a plugin (autostart or toolbar) to do that ? If yes, take a look at the object builder :
   pqApplicationCore* core = pqApplicationCore::instance();
   pqObjectBuilder* builder = core->getObjectBuilder();

From current core instance's object builder, you will be able to create servers, sources, filters,...

'Hope that helps.

I use Paraview on Windows.I want to render a vtk object on the Paraview gui,not the vtk window.
I don't konw if the servermanager can do it.Just like below:

plato = vtkPlatonicSolodSource()
plate.SetSolidType(3)

what should I do next to add the plato on the pipeline browser,and render it ?
