You can use the Python Annotation Filter and make the proper Python processing code to present the time information the way you want.<div><br></div><div><a href="http://paraview.org/Wiki/Users_Guide_Annotation#Python_annotation_filter">http://paraview.org/Wiki/Users_Guide_Annotation#Python_annotation_filter</a><br>

<br>
I have a question over the use of Annotate time filter in Paraview. I have a netcdf data which has time axis given as "days since 1950-01-01 00:00". This gives problem if I want to show the real time of the data in the animation window. What I would like to have shown are the date as 4-8-2003, 00:00 etc. But now it shows big number like 19521, 19522. Indeed they are days from 1-1-2950. Other visualization program like Ferret does show the right date.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have some idea how to solve the problem?<br>
<br>
Thanks a lot!<br>

Xueli<br>
