[Paraview] Union of "Extract Selection" ( and modification with Calculator) with all data

[Prof. Dr. Karl-Heinz Kunzelmann]

Dear all,

I use the Paraview feature "Extract Selection" to edit data in a subset 
of my data set. Together with "Calculator" this is a very handy feature 
for me (I edit surface label which are used as identifier for boundary 
conditions in a FEA program).

At present I have to save the changes (I do it as csv) and use an 
external program to replace the labels in the whole/main dataset based 
on the index numbers with my changes. This is not very convenient. I am 
sure that this can be done with the Paraview pipeline browser somehow or 
with a few python commands in the console. However, with my current 
knowledge I cannot solve this problem along and could use some advice, 
how to accomplish this.

Thanks a lot.

Sincerely

Karl-Heinz
