[Paraview] Curvilinear to (uniform) rectilinear grid?

Hi Oleg,


Sometimes CSV-formatted files are very convenient to check
the models' conditions.
So, if possible, I don't want to convert CSVs into Legacy VTKs.


I checked your data, and I found your problem.
Maybe the "Whole Extent" values of TableToStructuredGrid are wrong.

Try ((0, 13), (0, 10), (0, 11)). # 1st and 3rd arrays are swapped.
I got a rectangular source with these values successfully.

But when I import the file, I can only apply Table To Structured Grid filter, and it reads the file as if it were arbitrary curvilinear grid. How can I transform this grid to the rectilinear one? And is there any way to interpolate data between points, as grid size is 12*11*14 only? I could, for example, create finer uniform rectilinear mesh and estimate f on this mesh points, then plot it, but don't know how to do it. Any advice is appreciated.
