[Paraview] pipeline??

[B.W.H. van Beest]

Hi Ken,

Thanks for your answer. I found and tried the filter you mentioned and
it worked.
Despite my reading  I don't know how many pages on paraview/vtk doc I
read, but I missed that
multiple pipeline picture, so thanks for pointing me to it.
Remains to find out how to do that programmatically.
Regards,
Bertwim

When you load multiple data sets, you are actually creating several short independent pipelines. This fan in and fan out of pipelines is explained several places including the ParaView tutorial.
