[Paraview] Beginner's question: new data set with same filters. How?

[Jesse Samluk]

Dr. Cohen,

   What I mean by this is, when I first start Paraview, I hit File>Load State. Basically, there’s instances with the data that I used that I want saved and loaded when I revisit Paraview., whether it be a certain aspect of an image, a different field piece (I’m working with electromagnetics), etc.

Loading the state does not seem to work as expected (not all the timesteps are visible if the second simulation has more). Any ideas in this case? Also Jesse, what do you mean that you load your state file first? If I do that it ask me what data set I wish to load. Is that what you are referring to?

When you reload it, a dialog box asking you to confirm where the data files that were loaded are located will appear, and you can change the locations of those files to your new files there. Note that loading state files is cumulative - you will need to reset the state manually if you want to clear your old pipeline and data out. You can do this by clicking on the icon with the two computers and red x.
