[Paraview] ParaView v5.3: Generating textures from scalars and lookup table

[Nenad Vujicic]

David,

Thank you very much for your response! I tried what you suggested and it
worked, but, I'm getting bad texture, i.e. I get texture 2xN, where N is
number of segments in colormap and the exported texture mapped object looks
like I turned OFF InterpolateScalarsBeforeMapping flag. I would like to
simulate InterpolateScalarsBeforeMapping behavior by baking entire texture
first and exporting it. You can easily see difference if you create Wavelet
source, turn ON Surface representation, select RTData array for coloring
and set Number Of Table Values (in Color Map Editor) to e.g. 5.

What I did in background is: I patched vtkCompositePolyDataMapper2Internal
and vtkCompositePolyDataMapper2, so I'm able to access appropriate block
mapper and get rid of old colormap texture, coordinates, colors, call
MapScalars(), dump created ColorMapTexture to .vti file (everything
performed on block-mapper).

Do you have some idea where I made mistake?

Thanks in advance!

Nenad.
