[Paraview] PlotSelectionOverTime filter in python

[Andy Bauer]

Hi Paul,

This should get tracked in the Python Trace functionality. I'll add a bug
report for this. For now you can do it manually with something like:
>>> w = Wavelet()

>>> selection = SelectCells(query="id==0")

>>> ec = ExtractSelection(Selection=selection)

>>> ec.UpdatePipeline()


This should select the first cell of the Wavelet source and extract it. For
point selection replace SelectCells with SelectPoints. There's probably
more complex selections for multiblock data sets but talking to you I
thought you had an unstructured data set. For the query string, you can see
how more complex queries are created in the Find Data option under the Edit
menu.


Let me know if this doesn't work for you.


Cheers,

Andy
