[Paraview] Help the newbie

[David E DeMarle]

It is not easy to make ParaView update automatically when the data
changes because of VTK's demand driven nature, VTK's lack of thread
safety, and due to ParaView's client server architecture. Doing it
well is an active research topic.

Search the mailing list (ex
http://paraview.markmail.org/search/?q=in-situ#query:in-situ+page:1+mid:is7zpzmo75lmnihj+state:results)
about live data, real time visualization, or in-situ visualization for
guidelines about how to go about doing it yourself.
