[vtkusers] RES: [Paraview] Ensight to VTK converter

>>> none of the VTK file formats support transient data <<<

That's not good... :-0

so... I guess I would have to create the geometry and result files
separately and write this pvd file through some other program or script in
order to rebuild my problem...

I guess my problem is getting worse... maybe I should keep struggling with
the Ensight's format in Fortran :o(

Thanks a lot Kent. I would be trying forever if you have not advised me...

Renato.

Renato,

Maybe this is the cause of the confusion: none of the VTK file formats
support transient data, not even the newer XML versions. For transient data
you need to use the ParaView "pvd" format which is an XML file that has the
names of VTK files that each hold one time step. It is defined in the
ParaView book.
