[Paraview] Disable automatic mesh warping

[Moreland, Kenneth]

John,

Sam’s advice is sound, but I am curious where your data is coming from. ParaView usually does not automatically apply displacements by warping. The only exception I know of is the Exodus II reader, and in that case you can turn off the warping by unchecking the Apply Displacements checkbox.

Otherwise, it might be that the displacements are already applied in your data file. In which case Sam’s suggestion for undoing them with a negative warp should do the trick.

John--

Have tried the Warp filter with a scale of -1.0?

Hello,
I am working in a reduced unit system where the computed strain fields are around order 1. I could write postprocessors to rescale before visualization but that would increase my computational time.
Is there a way to turn off the automatic warping that ParaView performs on disp_k (k =x, y, z) fields?
I tried to use the WarpByVector filter with scale of 0.1 or smaller and that did not seem to work properly. I should mention I'm on version 5.0 (my favorite for a variety of reasons), so maybe the this WarpByVector issue is resolved in newer versions.
Thanks,
John
