[Paraview] Extract the x,y,z extents of a domain in Paraview

[Neal,Christopher R]

Thanks Joachim!


Do you also happen to know how to obtain the list of plotting variables once a data set has been loaded into Paraview? I would like to get something like, ['Pressure','Density',Velocity'].


Thank you,

Christopher,

Fetching the bounds of a source in Python is as simple as:

  >>> mySource.GetDataInformation().GetBounds()

The vtkPVDataInformation<http://www.paraview.org/ParaQ/Doc/Nightly/html/classvtkPVDataInformation.html> object returned by GetDataInformation() contains many other information about the source like:
 - DataSetType
 - MemorySize
 - PolygonCount
 - NumberOfPoints
 - NumberOfCels
etc.

Hi all,


I have noticed that  the max and min values of the x, y, and z coordinates of all of the vertices are displayed at the bottom of the 'Information' tab when I load a computational grid file into Paraview.  Is there a way to extract this information via a Python call to the Paraview library?

Thank you,
