[Paraview] ParaView 4.1.0 (UNCLASSIFIED)

Tue Jan 14 13:53:35 EST 2014

Classification: UNCLASSIFIED
Caveats: NONE

If I run with the "-dr" flag, the color map window shows up inside of the
main GUI (on the right hand side of the GL window) and works correctly.   If
I drag the color map editor tool outside of the main gui,  I get the same
behavior of the window disappearing if the cursor is outside of the main GL
window.

Rick,

Can you try running ParaView with "-dr" command line option and see if the
problem persists?

	I'm seeing some weirdness with the color map editor.   If I choose
the color
	map editor option, a separate window pops up as expected.  But when
I move
	my cursor from the main window over to the color map pop-up window,
the
	color map window disappears.  If I move my cursor back to the main
window,
	the color map pop-up reappears.   If I drag the main GUI window over
to so
	that the edges of the main GUI window and the color map popup window
are
	touching, then the color map editor window does not disappear.

	I'm using the Linux_64 prebuilt binary on a RHEL5 Linux system
running KDE
	3.5.4.

	Subject: [Paraview] ANN: ParaView 4.1.0 is available for download

	Folks,

	ParaView 4.1.0 is now available for download
	(http://paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.php
	<http://paraview.org/paraview/resources/software.php> ). With over
170
	issues resolved, this release includes several bug fixes and feature
	enhancements. For a detailed list of issues resolved, refer to the
change
	log (http://paraview.org/Bug/changelog_page.php
	<http://paraview.org/Bug/changelog_page.php> ).  Some of the notable
	enhancements in this release are as follows:

	Redesigned Color Map Editor panel

	This release introduces a completely designed panel for editing
color and
	opacity transfer functions for scalar coloring. The panel, which is
now a
	dockable widget, instead of a popup dialog, makes it easier to edit
transfer
	functions as well as edit labels and annotations on the color legend
or
	scalar bar. This also makes it easier to access some of the
functionality
	introduced in the previous version of ParaView, such as categorical
colors.
	It is now easier to edit transfer functions when using log scaling
as the
	transfer function editor view now switches to log space.

	Enhancements to Find Data dialog

	Find Data dialog, introduced several versions ago, has quickly
become of the
	main mechanisms for creating new selections. However, until now, if
the user
	created selection using some other mechanism, such as selecting
cells in the
	3D view, the Find Data dialog could not be used to inspect that
selection.
	One had to use what was called the Selection Inspector. That has now
been
	changed. Find Data dialog has been updated to always show the active
	selection, no matter how it was created.

	Selection Inspector panel has been removed. Selection Inspector was
	primarily used to control how selections are labelled, their font
	properties, etc. One can affect these directly from the Find Data
dialog or
	the new Selection Display Inspector which is dockable panel
specially
	designed for picking selection labels, label properties, or showing
the
	selection frustum for frustum based selections.

	Enhancements for interactions with Plots

	Inspired by plots in matplotlib, individual axes in line and bar
charts can
	now be zoomed by right-clicking and dragging along the x- or y-
axis. Of
	course, one can still drag diagonally to scale both axes as before.
Also the
	the user interactions for making new selections in line chart view
have been
	cleaned up to be more consistent with the render view.

	Support for Python-based views

	This release adds mechanisms to enable Python developers to
integrate views
	that use libraries such as matplotlib for rendering. This will make
it
	possible to take ParaView's charting capabilities even further. More
details
	on how to create such views can be found on Kitware blog
	(http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/588
	<http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/588> ).

	ParaView Catalyst: Zero-Copy infrastructure for transferring data

	A set of experimental interfaces have been added for reusing
simulation
	memory in portions of a Catalyst pipeline. A vtkMappedDataArray
subclass may
	be used for attribute/coordinate arrays, and
vtkMappedUnstructuredGrid is
	used for dataset topologies. More information can be found at

http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/CoProcessing#Experimental:_Reusing_simulation_m
	emory

<http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/CoProcessing#Experimental:_Reusing_simulation_
	memory> .

	ParaView Catalyst: Editions

	Several new editions of ParaView Catalyst are now available for
download and
	are routinely built and tested. These editions are:

	Base

	minimal set of dependencies needed for Catalyst

	Base-Python

	Base with Python support

	Essentials

	Base + dependencies needed for Calculator, Contour, Clip, Cut and
Glyph
	filters.

	Extras

	Essentials + dependencies needed for ExtractHistogram, WarpScalar,
	WarpVector, IntegrateAttributes, Extract Surface filters.

	Extras-Python

	Extras with Python support

	SurfaceLIC and support for Parallel Rendering

	One of the notable community contributions for this release includes
	extensions to the ParaView Line Integral Convolution contributed by
Lawrence
	Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). Details can be found on the
Wiki
	(http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Line_Integral_Convolution
	<http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Line_Integral_Convolution> ). The
	implementation has been designed to work with composite data in
parallel and
	includes a number of customizations that facilitate interactive data
	exploration.

	Updates to ParaViewWeb

	ParaViewWeb was integrated into ParaView binaries in the previous
release.
	This release includes several fixes and enhancements to simplify use
and
	deployment as well as updates to the WebGL rendering support. This
	implementation supports modern browsers with WebSocket capabilities
	including Safari 6+, Chrome 14+, Firefox 11+ and IE 10+.

	As always, we look forward to your feedback
(http://paraview.uservoice.com

	ParaViewWeb.
