[Paraview] Average data from multiple nodes

[Moreland, Kenneth]

Huh. I'm thinking of the behavior described in bug 0014940. When you make a query selection, you get statistics like average. When you make a surface selection (which is essentially an id selection) you get that first point. When you make a frustum selection, you get an error.

I would report this as a bug. I expect the plot selection over time to be consistent over all types of selection. And I would want the behavior to be as described in bug 0014945.

Ken,
I don't think that works.  Try the following:

can.exo.
select a few dozen points.  plot selection over time.  apply.
Notice that it only shows the first point.  Select multiple points.  (this now works).
You never get an average.

Alan,

Try selecting the points you want and then plot the selection over time. I think the current version of plot selection over time creates a series for the average value of the selection.

I was wondering if there was a tool that could average values from multiple nodes and plot that over time.  For example, I would like to take a selection of nodes, average their velocities, and plot that vs. time.

Thanks for the help.

Alan
