[Paraview] Is it possible to prevent the render window to appear when using a python script?

[Masquelet, Matthieu (GE Global Research)]

Hi,

I have a python script that loads a series of pvsm file to generate a sequence of animation. Here are a few pv-related statements in my script:

from paraview.simple import *
...
paraview.simple._DisableFirstRenderCameraReset() # Otherwise I get a zoomed out view when loading my pvsm file
...
for loop:
    servermanager.LoadState(tmp2)
    view = servermanager.GetRenderView()
    view.StillRender()
    ...
    view.WriteImage(...)
    Delete(view)

During the loop the render window appears on the foreground, does not matter whether I run through pvpython or pvbatch. Is there a way around that? Not only would it be more convenient but also I assume it could be quite a bit faster.

Thanks in advance,

Matthieu
