[Paraview] Disabling OpenGL window pop-up

[Bastil2001 at yahoo.de]

I am just wondering what disanvantages the disabling of the window popup has? 
Since it still is in the current git code I gurss the code that is commended by this fix has some use?


Thansk and Regards

Bastian


Utkarsh,

I've now been able to test out the new patch and it is working fine. To be
honest, this is all that is required as it removes the annoyance of having
numerous pop-up windows cluttering your desktop anytime you try to run
ParaView in parallel.

Thanks again!

Adriano

I believe you are talking about the server-side render window that pops up.

I am attaching a experimental patch to get you started. It works only on
Linux. All I am doing it not mapping the window. Now when you run server
with offscreen:

pvserver --use-offscreen-rendering

and connect to it from ParaView client, you should no longer see any
server-side windows when remote rendering.

Of course the patch is more of a hack, but it should give you a starting
point.
