<DIV><SPAN class=937455713-06072010><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>So it
is only possible to do this by wrapping the programmable filter in a C++ plugin,
which will then allow you to create a new GUI interface? The reason I
ask is that I am currently trying to find the limitations of using the
programmable filter to quickly test out new ideas for plugins. So far
it has been very useful, although I've still not found any examples using the
Request Information box. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=937455713-06072010><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>I'd be

<DIV></DIV>Hi Adriano,<BR><BR>It is possible to do this so that the user does
not have to write/modify any code, but it requires that you write a
plugin. Let me know if you're interested, I have some example of doing
that I can send to you. There is one outstanding bug, once it is fixed I
plan to post the information to the paraview wiki.<BR><BR>Pat<BR><BR><BR>

All,<BR><BR>Is it possible to pass user arguments into the programmable filter
