[Paraview] Surface representation inconsistency

[Den Fairol]

Hi Richard,

For the record, the pixelated dataset has a point/cell count of 4369/17282
(the other dataset has 955/3820). In term of memory footprint, I don't think
0.51 MB should be of any concern. Tried the "Immediate Mode Rendering" but
the same result occurred - good interactive quality, bad still quality.

Thank you and regards,
Den

Hi Den,

I am not sure where your problem comes from. I suspect the reason is you
have a very large dataset, so try to alter some render settings.

Use the menu "Edit->Settings", select "Render View", and the box "Use
Immediate Mode Rendering" should be checked (look at the image). If the box
is not checked, display lists are used. Display lists improve performance
for small datasets but are not recommended for large datasets due to
excessive memory usage and long display list creation times. Look at the
message when the mouse is over the box.

Richard.
