[Paraview] Probe Location

[Moreland, Kenneth]

If you know the point id, you can select exactly that with the Find Data dialog. You can then plot that selection over time.

As a result, I had to use the “Probe Location” tool in order to be able to choose the exact point. Nevertheless, I could not plot the desired quantity over the time (For example, if I have 10000 time steps, I am able to see the desired quantity in each time step but it is time consuming to manually plot the raw data). I would be so pleased if you could guide me how I can plot this quantity over the time appropriately at the desired point.
