[Paraview] ParaView Scripting

[Sebastien Jourdain]

Hi Stefano,

you can give a look at http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView and more precisely on:

http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView#Python_Scripting
http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Python_Scripting
http://paraview.org/Wiki/Python_GUI_Tools

Hope this could give you more insight... The trace can help you
convert UI interaction into script which can be manually tweaked for
your custom purpose.

Seb

The app outputs a single .vtu file which has multiple arrays, each representing the data at every time step of the simulation. I cannot animate this as it does not have any time information. I could not find the solution online and nor could I find any documentation for the python scripting. I tried that figuring that if I could seperate the vtu into multiple (ie. 0.vtu, 1.vtu, etc) then I could automatically produce animations.
