<br><font size=2 face="Lucida Console">Hello!</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Lucida Console"> I am currently
trying to create an EnSight Gold dataset that defines a Structured Grid
Geometry Mesh that is constant for all time values, but the VARIABLES section
contains scalars which change over time. This is extremely desirable,
as it reduces the file size significantly by not requiring me to repeat
a large mesh of points for each timestep - when the mesh itself is constant
and never changes over time.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Lucida Console"> I saw this issue
was brought up back in 2006, and it does not appear that the thread was
ever resolved:</font>

</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Lucida Console">Has anybody had any luck defining
a constant mesh with variables changing over time within the mesh with
EnSight?</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Lucida Console">I have attached an example snippet
of what I have come up with so far. This file will pass the "ens_checker"
validation program provided with the</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Lucida Console">EnSight software, but when I attempt
to open it in ParaView, ParaView locks up and crashes.</font>
