[Paraview] Filtering Data Set by Second Data Set

[Moritz.Huck at isea.rwth-aachen.de]

Hi,
I tried this. But the created object only contains the A data not the B data.
I have created the data set by "Group Datasets" since A and B come from different files.
(I am using Paraview 5.4.1 if there are differences)
Best Regards,
Moritz

The Find Data filter (under the Edit menu) will do exactly this

suppose you have a dataset with two fields called "A" and "B"

Use Find Data
Create a Selection

Find Cells from "<name of your grid in the pipeline browser>"
Select   "A"    is >= x   # (replace "x" by the numeric value

click on "Run Selection Query"
click on Extract Selection and a new object is created in the pipeline.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Should you want to do this programmatically (using python), it is a far less obvious to figure out the right syntax, because the calls are not being traced. :-(

Here is the code I would use:

selection=SelectCells()
selection.QueryString="scalar2 >= x"  # (replace "x" by the numeric value
selection.FieldType = 'CELL'
selection.UpdatePipelineInformation()

# create a new 'Extract Selection'
# assuming your input object is called "grid"

mySelection = ExtractSelection(Input=grid, Selection=selection)
mySelection.UpdatePipeline()
Show(mySelection)
