 Hi cory,  I was working on the case of water computationin the desired domain taking into account your suggestions. I attached heresome pictures that helps to figure out how I did it. I created the domain inwhich I want to compute the volume of water using the clip filter and then Ithresolded the clipped domain to  contain only the cells ranging between0.5 and 1 of alpha water and I ended up with the domain illustrated in picture3, and then I applied the annotation filter setting up the array association toPoint Data and the expression to algs.sum(algs.volume(inputs[0])), but I endedup with an error in the render view and output message stating thatAttributeError:'None Type' object has no attribute 'GetCellData'. I couldn'tunderstand the reason, I tried  all the array Association options, I gotthe same error, except for the Row Data, I got this error:AttributeError:'NoneType' object has no attribute 'GetNumberOfArrays'. (picture 4 and 5).  I googled that link   paraview.simple.PythonAnnotation — ParaView/Python5.0.1-RC1-193-gad11756 documentation

 It  says that I need to set the input whichI didn't know how to do it since it doesn't ask for any input in the PropertiesPanel. Any solutions for this problem ??  In this expression algs.sum(algs.volume(inputs[0])), whatdoes the 0  stands for ?    I think if I threshold the domain in which Iwant to calculate the volume of water, let's say between 0.5 and 1, then I willend up by inaccurate water volume because I am including volume of air in thecomputed volume and on the other hand I am ignoring the cells that contain lessthan 0.5 of water.  That's why, I am looking for an algorithm that multiplyevery cell containing water by the coefficient alpha water. You find attachedin picture 6, an example of how I want to calculate the water volume. I don'tknow how to program it.  Any helps concerning this matter will be verymuch appreciated.

 Hi Islem,

Please reply-all to keep the discussion on the list so that others may
benefit from the discussion.

First, is there a data array that describes whether a volume element
in your mesh contains water or some other element? If so, you can use
the Threshold filter under the Filters -> Alphabetical -> Threshold
menu to select only the elements representing water. You will have to
set the minimum and maximum to the value that represents water, then
click Apply.

HTH,
Cory
