Hi all,<div><br></div><div>I am new to this list, and I fear that my question is of the kind that comes back every once in a while - though I have not managed to find it. I am hoping that somebody can give me a quick "yes, this is possible" or "no, this is not possible" here.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I am currently using paraview for my visualizations by writing vtu files from python and then loading them, which is a bit of a hassle - especially when I just want to do some quick parameter fiddling. And it bothers me (conceptually) that data has to make the slow travel from memory to disk and back.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Ideally I would link to paraview and inject objects and widgets directly. Additionally it would be great to update the model during computations. However I cannot seem to figure out if (and then how) this is possible. I have read the <a href="http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Python_Scripting" target="_blank">python scripting</a> guide and tried some examples there such as the cone, but it gives me a plain window without even mouse interaction (which I imagine can be added), not the full featured paraview instance I had hoped for.</div>
<div><br></div><div>So my question is simply if it is possible to inject objects from python into an already running or separately spawned paraview instance? If so, any pointers in that direction (an example script?) would of course be enormously helpful.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div><br></div><div>Gertjan van Zwieten</div>
