Hi there<br>I just checked to lookmark and it's not what we are looking for, what we need is more like a "macro", guessing that in paraview terminology is a plugin<br><br>so far we have the plugin working, but the user has to load the file python shell, which is not very user friendly, so all we have left to do is a a file open<br>
<br><br>thanks in advance <br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Fri, Jan 9, 2009 at 11:37 AM, Jorge Mario Mazo <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jmm.mecanica@gmail.com">jmm.mecanica@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

so far no success.<br><br><br>A couple of minutes ago I had this idea: write a file choser in python/TK, and run the script from paraview, any ideas if that would work?<br><br>anyway thank to all, good tips<div><div></div>

</div>There is a solution, using the Python Shell.<br>
<br>
1) load your existing state file<br>
2) identify the name of your data object in the pipeline browser. It is<br>
usually the filename stripped of its directory name<br>
3) open the Python Shell and type<br>
<br>
pm = servermanager.ProxyManager()<br>
reader = pm.GetProxy('sources', 'filename') # where 'filename' is<br>
the string found above in 2)<br>
<br>
# your data object is likely to have a name called FileName.<br>
# you may print it to verify<br>
reader.FileName<br>
# you may change it to a new filename<br>
reader.FileName = "your new filename"<br>
<br>
4) Forcing the render window to refresh itself will be enough to cause<br>
the update of the whole pipeline. Otherwise, you get a handle to your<br>
view and call StillRender, i.e.<br>
<br>
view = servermanager.GetRenderView()<br>
view.StillRender()<br>
