[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] record steps to a script so that it can be played back later

[Moreland, Kenneth]

This is a Python script. It can be executed by the Python interpreter in ParaView. There are a couple ways to do this, but the easiest is to bind the script to a macro. When the script pops up, select File -> Save as Macro. Once you save the script as a macro, a button with that name will show up in your toolbar.

I recommend reading about scripting in The ParaView Tutorial (http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/The_ParaView_Tutorial). It is covered in Chapter 4.

Hi, Ken,

Thanks for the reply!  But, can you give a little more details?

After I did "stop trace", paraview popped up a window with texts.  It looks like this is python script.  What do I do next?  Do I have this as a python script?  Then, how to use this script to process another case?

Sorry about these stupid questions.

Pei-Ying

Dear paraview experts,
Is it possible to record the steps, including rotating the domain using the mouse, and then, save it to a file so that it can be played back in another case?
