Many different file formats use the .xyz extension, and the .dat extension is so generic as to provide no real information whatsoever. ParaView provides two readers that read files that use the .xyz extension: XYZ Molecular data files and PLOT3D files. However, as neither of these files have an associated .dat file, I don’t think either of those is what you want, which is probably ParaView is not reading the data correctly.<br> <br> -Ken<br> <br> <br> On 1/25/10 7:57 AM, "Ashish Bhateja" <<a href="ashishbh@iitk.ac.in">ashishbh@iitk.ac.in</a>> wrote:<br> <br> </span></font><blockquote><font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span style="font-size:11pt">I loaded the trajectory using .xyz and .dat files (separately).
