Try the Temporal Particles To Pathlines filter.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [Paraview] visualise particle paths

Yes animating them is no problem. What I would like to see is the path that the particles take over time, visualized as a pathline. Visualizing the location of a particle at one point in time is not what I'm after, which is what I see with the animation...

I am assuming you have a series of these files? Did you try naming them in a way that ParaView recognizes as file series and then animating them?

Dear Paraview Community,

I am trying to visualise pathlines for my particle data. I have a vtk file with point coordinates as input.

As an example this is one input file for just three particles. With a collection of these, is it possible to view the movement of these particles over time?

# vtk DataFile Version 4.2
Particle data from file output.0 at time 0 ms
ASCII
DATASET POLYDATA
POINTS 3 double
0 0 1
2 0 0
1 1 2



There's a few temporal filters, and I've had a play with them but they currently produce errors for me, resulting in nothing shown or paraview crashing. I have looked through the archives, and it seems there might have been a way to do this in an old version, but not right now?

Thanks
Tim
