I think the first problem is that there isn't an active source. The GetActiveSource() is returning None and when you create subsequent filters that automatically connect to the active source it causes problems when you try to execute the pipeline. Something along the lines of below should get you closer:<br>
=========<br>try: paraview.simple<br>except: from paraview.simple import *<br>paraview.simple._DisableFirstRenderCameraReset()<br><br>Wavelet()<br>p = PlotOverLine()<br>p.Source.Point1 = [-.5, -5., -5.]<br>p.Source.Point2 = [.5, 5., 5.]<br>
w = CSVWriter()<br>w.FileName = "/home/piota/csv.csv"<br>w.UpdatePipeline()<br>=========<br><br>The problem here is that the output of PlotOverLine is a polydata and the writer is expecting a vtkTable. I'm not sure how to convert between the two. Maybe someone else can help you with that.<br>
<br>The 2 things I'd try at this point are either creating my own writer using the python programmable filter or writing out a polydata file and parsing that for the information that you need. The first one is probably the better choice of the two. <br>

Ok, <div><br></div><div>I moved on a little..... Reading the output of the error reported in the previous mail, it says that it cannot find "<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: Courier; font-size: 12px;">XArrayName</span>". Looking the original script you can see that it is needed for the definition of the plot area properties in the GUI.... I don't need it as I only want a csv file, so I commented out everything in that section. Running the script again it now complains about being unable to find "<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: Courier; font-size: 12px; white-space: pre-wrap;">CreateWriter</span>". I need this to write the csv file so this error becomes fatal. </div>
<div>As this function should be included in the paraview.simple that I load at the beginning of the script (like explained in the manual), what I did was to go through all the functions in the simple.py file to locate it. Without any succes..... Then I went on with the brute-force approach and lauched:</div>

It looks like a complain about the server, not about my script though.... in fact, if comment out the writer part, leaving only the "trace" recorded set of operations, it spits out the very same error. Moreover, the Paraview output doesn't show any output at all (except for the usual a complain about the qt4 that is not related).</p>
<p style="margin: 0px;">Do you see any evident problem in the script syntax in the writer section? For example references to the wrong source, etc?</p><p style="margin: 0px;">
Or do you believe that it is a problem related to the Paraview/Python installation (or whatever..). </p><p style="margin: 0px;"><br></p><p style="margin: 0px;">
Another point.... does the "PlotOverLine2" influence the results? I recorded the trace making a second POL that automatically got labeled as #2... if I run it at startup it executes perfectly fine so I don't think that the problem is here too.</p>
<p style="margin: 0px;"><br></p><p style="margin: 0px;">I'm sorry for my pretty low level in Python as I am an absolute beginner</p>

If you're running the python script in the paraview gui sometimes the messages are printed out to the python shell. What version of paraview are you using? <br><br>I'm running paraview from the head of the repo. The output I get from the OutputMessages window is:<br>

Hello everybody,<div><br></div><div>I've been using Paraview for quite a long time but I didn't need the python scripting up to now.</div><div>I want to execute a series of plot over line in numerous points and different time steps so it is nothing</div>
<div>I can afford to do manually.</div><div>Looking on the net I was able to find out how to record a macro and how to create a writer so I</div><div>ended up with this script:</div><div><br></div><div>--------------------------------------------------------------------</div>
<div><div>try: paraview.simple</div><div>except: from paraview.simple import *</div><div>paraview.simple._DisableFirstRenderCameraReset()</div><div><br></div><div>fotobioreattore_foam = GetActiveSource()</div><div>PlotOverLine2 = PlotOverLine( Source="High Resolution Line Source" )</div>
<div><br></div><div>PlotOverLine2.Source.Point1 = [-0.035100001841783524, -0.03509980067610741, 0.0]</div><div>PlotOverLine2.Source.Point2 = [0.035100001841783524, 0.035100001841783524, 0.4300000071525574]</div><div><br>

<div>DataRepresentation7 = Show()</div><div><br></div><div>PlotOverLine2.Source.Point1 = [-0.0, 0.0, 0.0]</div><div>PlotOverLine2.Source.Point2 = [0.0, 0.0, 0.4300000071525574]</div><div><br></div><div>XYChartView4 = GetRenderView()</div>

<div><br></div><div>If I'm not mistaken, this should write a csv.csv file in my home folder but it doesn't write anything. No error is reported when I run the script but still I get no output.</div><div>I'm still a bit confused on which source I should specify, so I'm pretty sure that the writer part is incorrect.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Can somebody help me filling it out properly?</div><div><br></div><div>Thx in advance.</div><div><br></div><font color="#888888"><div>Luca</div>
