[Paraview] Extracting min/max values of current data range as a variable in python

[kenichiro yoshimi]

Hi,

I also want to know if there is a simple way to do, since I only have
the somewhat redundant code:
---
source = GetActiveSource()

#options for component: -1, 0, 1 and 2 => Mag, X, Y, Z
component = -1

cdi = source.GetDataInformation().GetCompositeDataInformation()

for i in range(cdi.GetNumberOfChildren()):
  print 'Block Name: ', cdi.GetName(i)

  data = cdi.GetDataInformation(i).GetCellDataInformation()
  for j in range(data.GetNumberOfArrays()):
    array = data.GetArrayInformation(j)
    arrayName = array.GetName()
    dataRange = array.GetComponentRange(component)
    print arrayName, dataRange
---

Thanks,
yoshimi
