[Paraview] Retrieving Data (Client-Server)

[Dennis McWherter]

Hello,

I have created a GUI panel which I would like to populate with some
information about a given object. I can find the object through the
pqServerManagerModel without any issues. However, once I already have this
object in the form of pqDataRepresentation* or vtkSMProxy* (or some slight
variation thereof), is there a way in which I can easily retrieve basic
data on the object? For instance, I would specifically like to know the
point coordinates for this object (objects are expected to be standard vtk
data types). If possible, I do not want to attempt to "reconstruct" the
original data object locally. I have also read "GetClientSideObject()"
solutions, but these break the client-server model which is something I
would like to avoid, if possible. Is there any current way of doing this?

Regards,
Dennis McWherter
