I think that either xinclude or xpath can reduce the size of the xdmf<br>
file by acting like a macro that gets repeatedly expanded.<br>
<br>
However, I vaguely remember that the last time I tried that approach<br>
it didn't work right off the bat and I moved on to something else. If<br>
you do get it to work, can you please post a code snippet? We can put<br>
it on the wiki for the next person who runs into that problem.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">Hello,<br>
<br>
thanks for the response. I managed to create and xdmf file that seems to be<br>
working.<br>
<br>
But I want to know if I can make the file more concise. I am dealing with a<br>
simple cube of dimension 512^3 for all time steps and the name of my<br>
variables and everything remains the same. Only the filename changes. Right<br>
now my xmf file looks like this:<br>
<br>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>

</Attribute><br>
</Grid><br>
</Grid><br>
</Domain><br>
</Xdmf><br>
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>
But if I want to read like 10 variables from the same file, and I have<br>
around 100 time steps, this file can become extremely long and ugly. Is<br>
there a more elegant format of XMF file? It seems stupid to repeat the grid<br>
and variable name information again and again unless they really change.<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"><br>
You can generate one (and only one) xdmf file with "temporal information",<br>
pointing to each one of your HDF5 files. So ParaView will be aware of the<br>
temporal dimension of your data.<br>
<br>
More info in <a href="http://www.xdmf.org/index.php/XDMF_Model_and_Format" target="_blank">http://www.xdmf.org/index.php/XDMF_Model_and_Format</a>.<br>

Hello,<br>
<br>
I have multiple HDF5 data files containing information at different time<br>
steps of a flow simulation. I am using a XDMF file to visualize them.<br>
<br>
I want to visualize the evolution of a particular iso-surface and data<br>
over a slice. How can I perform the same set of operation over all these<br>
files and then combine them together to make a movie out of it? Should I<br>
save a python state file of one time step and then use pvpython to combine<br>
all these python state files? There are over 1000 time steps, so I cannot do<br>
it manually.<br>
<br>
Also, is there any specific trick to make the movie in real time?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Pradeep<br>
