If someone is going further on that .ini corruption, I just noted something maybe<br>useful. The problem is not that CellArray are not listed in the "Color by" combo<br>box: If you try with <br> PointSource -> GenerateIds<br>
instead of<br> SphereSource -> GenerateIds<br>then the CellArray is visible. As the sphere source integrates a normal computation,<br>I suspect a sort of "MaxNumberOf..." blocking the number of arrays to 2.<br>
<br>Anyway, Mike found the workaround. Thanks again!<br><br>HTH<br>Jerome<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/3/3 Jérôme <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jerome.velut@gmail.com">jerome.velut@gmail.com</a>></span><br>

Drum roll please....... "Corrupt" set of paraview preferences. After installing 10.5.8 clean from my installation disks everything worked as it was supposed to. So that means the only difference is between the 2 user environments. Preferences is the first to check. Looked in my home directory, blew away the .config directory, launched paraview on the "trouble" machine and now everything works. I could completely replicate this issue simply by swapping in and out the "good" and "bad" preferences for ParaView. I have the "bad" preferences if anyone wants them to try and debug what was going on.<br>
<br>
Thanks to EVERYONE who helped me with ideas.<br>

I just tried the 3.6.2 binary on a MacBook booted off an old 10.5.7 usb drive backup and all of the Color By entries showed up just fine. The MacBook has the GMA 950 on-board graphics chipset. The Mac Pro I used before has the NVidia GeForce 8800 GT card. If you can think of any other specs that might be crucial, just drop me a line.<br>

I just fire up the 3.6.2 binary from Kitware on OS X 10.5.8 on a MacBook Pro with nVidea 8600M graphics card and the information tab is identical to your image BUT my "Color By" drop down only shows "Solid Color", "Ids", "Normals", all of which are "Point Data" and NOT "Cell Data".<br>
<br>
So not really sure what is up. If someone wants to remotely work on my machine email me off list and I'll get you setup.<br>

I don't have a CVS build on OS X 10.5.8 any more, but I booted into it and ran the 3.6.2 binary and SphereSource->GenerateIds shows all four arrays in Color By and three in Information.<br>

By my side, yes: SphereSource -> GenerateIds. You are right: Information<br>
tab shows the celldata and pointdata array, whereas "Color by" has only point.<br>

Mmm..not sure if that'd help, since you said you can reproduce the<br>
issue with GenerateIds filter as well, right?<br>

Mike, but the cell data shows up correctly on the information tab,<br>
right? So the cell data is being loaded, and even reported to<br>
ParaView. It's hard to imagine why it would be doing what it's<br>
