Hello Community,
I just installed ParaView 5.0.0 and loaded a vtk-file which worked under ParaView 4.2.0! Doing so I receive the warning 'Reading file version: 4.2 with older reader version 4.0', suggesting that an outdated vtk version is used to read the file. I should mention that changing the header line in the vtk-file from '# vtk DataFile Version 4.2' to '# vtk DataFile Version 4.2' does the trick, however, I don't understand why ParaView complains? I read that ParaView uses it's own vtk version which seems to be 7.1.0 (see below), so why this warning? Is there anything else I can can do to fix that or is this a bug in ParaView? Thanks!
from __future__import print_function
import vtk
print(vtk.vtkVersion.GetVTKSourceVersion())
Best wishes, Thomas
