<big>First of, thanks for your quick help!<br>
<br>
In fact, the 'table to points'<font size="+1"> filter was the
problem. I was misled by the 'interpolate colors' option shown
in the help (that I couldn't find). I performed the 'table to
structured grid' filter with the extents filled in correctly
(that was the problem when I tried this filter on my own) and it
delivered the result I expected!<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>
Sven<br>

<font face="Calibri, Verdana, Helvetica, Arial"><span
style="font-size: 11pt;">The table to structured grid filter
only works if your csv file actually represents a 2D or 3D
array. If your points have no implied topology, you can
impose one by running the Delaunay 3D filter.<br>

<br>
What you are doing is reading in point data, and displaying
this point data in 3d space. You have not created a solid
for ParaView to color – just points.<br>
<br>
I believe what you want to do is actually create a solid.
This can be done using the “table to structured grid
filter”. Turns out that I had this question from a user
earlier today, and wrote up a quick and dirty wiki page on
it, located here: <a moz-do-not-send="true"

<br>
I'm quite new to Paraview and have an urgent problem. I
employed the help that was/is available to me - meaning <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://paraview.org/OnlineHelpCurrent/">http://paraview.org/OnlineHelpCurrent/</a>
- but couldn't solve the problem until now. Actually, I
don't consider my problem to be really complicated, it
might well be that the solution is one mouse-click away.<br>
<br>
APPROACH<br>
--> a dataset (CSV-file) of a three dimensional
tomography was imported into Paraview<br>
--> 'table to points'-filter was performed, using the
x-,y- and z-values (latter are negative) of my dataset
(first three columns)<br>
--> 'colour by...': the fourth data column with the
resistivity values was chosen<br>
-|-> finally I wanted the colors to be interpolated
between the points.<br>
<br>
<br>
PROBLEM: I can't perform the color interpolation.<br>
<br>
In the wiki there's a small picture showing the color
section with the option 'color by...'. Above this
dropdown-list you can see 'interpolate colors"<br>
being activated.<br>
<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://paraview.org/OnlineHelpCurrent/Display.html">http://paraview.org/OnlineHelpCurrent/Display.html</a><br>
<br>
In my case, there is no such thing, instead the option ist
named 'interpolate scalars'. In addition to that, in my
display there's a second (smaller and empty) dropdown-list
next to 'color by...' and an option called 'apply texture:
none' (grey).<br>
<br>
<br>
Many thanks in advance if you can help me! (unfortunately
I can only answer tomorrow and then not until next monday,
26th July)<br>
