[Paraview] Creating a ribbon

[Fred Fred]

Sorry, I confused with another class. Actually the problem is respective points of both polylines are connected by pairs, which implies that both polylines should have the same number of points, isn't it?

    Hum... I didn't get what you told. The ruled surface filter works
    for 3D polylines, as soon as you have at least two of them. I just
    built a screw in ParaView with a LineSource, a SplineSource and the
    RuledSurfaceFilter.

    I am curious about the context in which it fails. Is it possible for
    you to share the polylines and the expected result?

        It is not a reliable solution to my problem because it works in
        2D and my contours are all but almost planars, which makes it
        very hard to find an appropriate transform.
        I finally wrote my own algorithm and, waiting to find a bad
          use case :-), it works for the time being.
        Anyway thx for trying to help me.

            Hi,

            

            You can easily add the vtkRuledSurfaceFilter from VTK in
            ParaView. I already did it in my Peavip stuffs (http://github.com/jeromevelut/Peavip).

            If your polylines are in different sources (eg. two
            different SplineSources), you'll have to pass them through
            "Append Geometry" prior he RuledSurfaceFilter

               Hello,
                I have 2 polylines and I would like to create a
                  ribbon between them, ie a triangulation. I did not
                  find any suitable class but I wonder if I did not miss
                  anything, any help?
