[Paraview] Paraview can't read Tecplot X,Y(X) files

[M.]

Hello Richard,

Thanks for your answer. Indeed, if I modify the file to

TITLE = "Example: Simple XY Plot"
VARIABLES = "X", "Y", "Z",  "Distance", "Temperature"
ZONE T="Only Zone", I=20, J=2, K=1, F=POINT
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.0       850.9
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.022     790.1
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.051     554.0
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.069     540.0
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.075     545.5
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.083     549.4
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.106     590.2
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.1234    535.1
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.15      601.0
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.201     664.5
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.25      635.9
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.35      599.9
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.4454    600.0
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.49      513.0
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.5656    442.0
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.6423    333.5
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.6604    300.4
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.7       245.7
0.0   0.0   0.0   0.89      221.4
0.0   0.0   0.0   1.3       200.0

Paraview can read the file. But this poses a new problem: if I use J=1,
K=1, Paraview cannot read it again, but if I use J=2, K=1 or vice versa
Paraview can read it, but it shows the 20 values plus 20 zeros after it. Is
there a way to go around this?

Cheers
