You won't be able to use the calculator to rename it but you can use a Programmable Filter:<div><br></div><div>

<div>Hi Micheal,</div><div><br></div>You can use the calculator filter to rename variables. Could you also create a bug report at <a href="http://www.paraview.org/Bug/main_page.php" target="_blank">http://www.paraview.org/Bug/main_page.php</a>.<br>

Hi, hopefully you can help me with my issue.<br><br>I'd like to do some calculations involving some vector data, but it keeps throwing an error.<br><br>(iHat*abs(2DVEL_X))+(jHat*abs(<div>2DVEL_Y))+(kHat*0)<br>
<br>I
think what's happening is that ParaView expects an operator between the
2 and the D. However, the 2 is part of the variable name. Is there a
way to tell ParaView this, such as an escape character or a way to
enclose the variable name?<br>
<br>I'd like to not have to rename the variables in the file, because
I'm not in charge of the data. If there is a way I can do that in
ParaView, that would work as well, I think.<br><br>I've just started using ParaView, so hopefully I'm not missing something obvious, but thanks in advance for your help.<br><font color="#888888"><font color="#888888">
