[Paraview] slightly puzzled by paraview extract block behavior (UNCLASSIFIED)

[Andy Bauer]

Hey Mike,

I'm getting something funky when reading an Ensight file with 14 processes
as well that I don't see with 2 or 13 processes (I didn't bother trying
with other amounts). The error I get is:
ERROR: In
/home/acbauer/CODE/ParaView/ParaView-v4.1.0/VTK/Common/DataModel/vtkDataSet.cxx,
line 414
vtkStructuredGrid (0xa70560): Point array DENS with 1 components, only has
-325 tuples but there are 0 points

This is just for loading in the file though and not even using the extract
block filter. Are you getting a similar error?

I'm getting the error with the naca.bin.case at
http://www.paraview.org/gitweb?p=ParaViewData.git;a=tree;f=Data/EnSight;h=fc6cbe6fc7851e2f3bae520f4cf4b933ab963c93;hb=HEAD.


Best,
Andy
