[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Re: Help with Glyph Colors

[Scott, W Alan]

You are correct, this would color the glyphs differently, but the user stated he/she wanted to change the colors individually, such as different color depending on which type of fault (or no fault) caused the earthquake.  What my user is asking for is to change the colors after the data is read in, what you are suggesting is coloring by data that is read in.

Do I understand correctly, and is there a way to change one glyph at a time, manually?

Thanks,

Alan

One way to color each of the glyphs differently is by coloring with a scalar array. Any point-data arrays present before the glyph filter was applied are copied over to the individual glyphs by the glyph filter. You can then color the glyphs using any of the point data arrays passed through.

I also want to add some more data, maybe triangles, with a different color. I haven't figured out how to change the glyph color without changing the color of everything else.
