Dear Dr. Liu,<br><br>I tried to install development version paraview3.5.0, but it also gave me the same error message:<br><br>ERROR: In /home/srana2/opt/ParaView3/VTK/IO/vtkEnSightGoldBinaryReader.cxx, line 3977<br>vtkEnSightGoldBinaryReader (0x1c35400): Read failed<br>
<br>Could you please throw some more light on how to visualize particle data. What my understanding says is, glyph adds sphere at every node point and scales them with the data in particle file for example diameter of particles in *.DP file when we select the scale mode as scalar. Though I am not sure how particle coordinate file comes in to the picture.<br>
I don't have more than 5000 particles in my simulation but information tab shows as ~169750 number of points. Also the development version doesn't shows the option to color the particles with particle data.<br>Thanks for your time.<br>
<br>Regards,<br>Sandeep<br><br>P.S : Attached is the new particle image file for reference<br><br><br>On Mon, May 4, 2009 at 8:13 PM, Zhanping Liu <<a href="mailto:zhanping.liu@kitware.com">zhanping.liu@kitware.com</a>> wrote:<br>
><br>> Hi Sandeep:<br>> <br>> Would you please try your EnSight Gold data files using the latest version of ParaView? If the problem still exists, I will be glad to fix it. I mean there has been much difference between ParaView3.4 (that you are using) and the latest version regarding EnSight Gold files.<br>

I should have all my particles with dia 6e-5m but Paraview displays them with different sizes. In the Scalars section I have selected MP, and Vector as U. I changed the default radius of 0.5 to 0.05 and Scale mode is set to vector. Also, the number of points in information section is way too more than what I have in my files. I would really appreciate any help in understanding Paraview particle visualization.<br>
