Hey Mark,

Looks like we took that out as part of the revamp described here:
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/15917

Specifically this merge request took out the "No. Frames" entry.
https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/merge_requests/896
because, at least at that time, apparently the control didn't do anything at all.

A 1 commit merge request that restores the widget and hooks it up to do what it apparently did at one time is
here. https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/merge_requests/2197

Hello,

In ParaView 5.3.0 and earlier, when Animation mode was Snap to TimeSteps, in the Save Animation dialog box there was an option for No. of Frames / timestep. This doesn’t show up in the 5.4.0 dialog box. Was this just moved or was it removed completely?

My use case for this is a data set with 25 timesteps, each of which is on the order of either 5 minutes or 30 minutes apart in real world time. I’d render 30 frames / timestep to get a 25 second movie to show each discrete timestep for one second. The video should show those discrete jumps in time and not use interpolation.

I can do the frame replication in BASH but it was handy to have that option.

Thanks,
Mark
