Dear all,
In order to nicely visualize a dynamic 3D model I want to use ParaView in c=
ombination which EnsightGold (*.case) files. My tetrahedral FE model has a =
static geometry and only one variable of the elements (scalar per element) =
is changing over time.
To this end I created three files: (1) example.case, (2) example.geo, (3) e=
xample.sigma. The latter is holding all timesteps of the dynamic variable (=
in my case the conductivity).
Furthermore, I've verified these files using the ens_checker application wh=
ich concludes with a positive "Hooray! Data format verification SUCCESSFUL =
with No Warnings".
However, if I load the casefile in ParaView only the first timestep can be =
visualized. As soon as I change the time to another timestep ParaView freez=
es (no more reaction and consumes 100% of CPU).
Is it possible that what I want to do using the EnsightGold files is not su=
pported by ParaView?
What else would you suggest me to resolve this problem?
Thank you very much for your help in advance.
Best wishes,
Fab
PS: I am using ParaView 4.3.1 on a Win 7 64-bit machine
PS2: A hint which might be useful for others looking for the ens_checker ap=
plication: I simply downloaded the current trial version of Ensight, opened=
the executable of the setup in an archive manager (e.g. 7-zip), located an=
d extracted the ens_checker.exe.
