[Paraview] Filtering Data Set by Second Data Set

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

Hi Jean,
Thank you that worked.
Please excuse the confusion, I am new to using paraview and not totally aware how data is managed.
Same mesh referred to the same mesh in the FEM software and therefore matching geometries.

Thank ouy,
Moritz

Well..."Group Dataset" is another beast. In your original message you said the data was on the same mesh. It is not.

if you follow the ? under "Group Datasets" the Help menu will tell you "Groups multiple datasets to create a multiblock dataset"


So you do not have a single mesh, but you now have a multi-block made of two meshes.

What you want instead is 'Append Attributes'. Select both objects in your pipeline browsers, and append them. You will get a single dataset with the two scalars "A" and "B".


"The Append Attributes filter takes multiple input data sets with the same geometry and merges their point and cell attributes to produce a single output containing all the point and cell attributes of the inputs."



Repeat Selection as in the previous email.
