&gt; Hi,<br>
&gt; &nbsp;<br>
&gt; I have many tvu files, each one representing a timestep, and want to display<br>
&gt; the right time in Paraview instead of the timestep number. Looking for<br>
&gt; information, I have found a presentation &#8220;Working with time in Paraview&#8221;<br>

&gt; One possibility sems to be to create a file with extension pvd, containing a<br>
&gt; list of all vtu files with their associated time, like this:<br>
&gt; &nbsp;<br>

&gt; &nbsp; &lt;/Collection&gt;<br>
&gt; &lt;/VTKFile&gt;<br>
&gt; &nbsp;<br>
&gt; I have tried that, but it apparently does not work like that. I get the<br>
&gt; error message attached below (ParaVoew 3.14.0, WIN XP).<br>
&gt; What have I done wrong?<br>
&gt; &nbsp;<br>
&gt; Thank you for a hint,<br>
