[Paraview] Working with distributed data

[Robert Maynard]

Hi Paul,

Am I correct in presuming the primary issue that you have is that the volume
and surface both are being divided differently across the nodes?

If that is correct I would look at the CMFE (Cross Mesh Field Evaluation)
filter that can be found on at
https://github.com/berkgeveci/ComparativeVis/tree/master/CMFEFilter. The
filters first step is to redistributed a dataset based on another datasets
partitioning.

You than could use that logic in your own filter before you do the mapping
based on global ids. If you have any questions on the CMFE code please ask.
