[Paraview] generate contour from point data

[Moreland, Kenneth]

Eduardo,

That is a pretty old version of ParaView. It's also not a real release (RC stands for release candidate) so there might be bugs. Before I sent out my original email I tried it out on your data with ParaView 4.0.1 and had no problems. Any chance you can update your version of ParaView?

Ken,

Thank you for your answer. I did that, but the problem is that the scalar values are not shown in my paraview version. Does it have a bug? I have the 3.12.0-rc2 64bits.......I got only a contour plot of one color (white), if I change the display options to scalar or cellnormals nothing interesting happens. I am only able to change the color of those contours, but the values are not shown at all in a color scale. Should I do something different?

All the best,

Eduardo

Eduardo,

After loading your cvs file, run in through the Table To Points filter. Then use the Delaunay 2D filter to create cells connecting the points. From there you can run the Contour filter.

BTW, if you data happens to be a regular grid, you can run the Table To Structured Grid filter instead of Table To Points and Delaunay, but the example data you posted is not completely regular.

Dear Users,

I am new using the paraview software. I am trying to generate from a list of data in the x,y,z,scalar format a contour plot. Attached you will find and example of the data I am working with. As you see this is just a 2d plot which I need to generate. I wasn't able to find a solution. Would you mind to help me please? Or is it not possible?

I hope you will have an answer for me.

All the best,

Eduardo
