[Paraview] Measuring a specific contour line generated in Paraview with Line object?

[Jesse Samluk]

Cory,

  Two quick questions for you on the differences between “Ruler” and “PlotOverLine”.

   I think what I am looking for is the Ruler source to give me the width of those white lines (as indicated on the image with the red line, attached again for reference). My question first question is, is there a way to save a Ruler in a state file such that it will automatically adjust to a new width of those white lines when I open another VTK file? Or do I have to manually adjust them with each VTK I open?

   Second question, when you said the line below, what did you mean (can you walk me through it?)? The way I take it is that the PlotOverLine gives me values of all the fields present as defined on the Ruler (which is cool, by the way), but not the width unless I define it. Am I on the right track with this one, or way off?

Thanks!
Jesse
