[Paraview] Load many VTK from different folders at once

[Albina, Frank]

Hi Lorenzo!

Maybe you'd better off with reading the OpenFOAM solution with the built-in OpenFOAM reader. Just create in your case directory an empty OF.foam file and you can start reading the solution by opening this file from the GUI.

Hope this helps.

Frank.

I was thinking: maybe there's a way to create a text files (or something in another format) which contains the paths to the vtk files I need to open and this file could be submitted to paraview to automate the whole process of opening every each one of the vtk files...

What do you think?

Thank you!
