[Paraview] STL files: normal and vertex

[ufdup]

Dear all,

I have a contour in Paraview that I would like to export to Matlab. In the
past I’ve been doing this by generating a STL file which could be read in
Matlab without any problems.

However, now my STL files are quite large and reading in Matlab is really
inefficient because of the STL standard way of writing. For my application
it would be enough to right only the normals and the vertex of the
triangles.

I am working with the paraview.simple module and so far I can get the
normals using the Filter ComputeNormals followed by a
servermanager.Fetch(….). The vertex, however are still missing….

Does anyone know how can I get this kind of information from Paraview using
Python?

Best Regards,
Tiago
