have been using the ANSYS for large scale FE analysis. Recently I node
that the paraview has the ability of view and postprocess the large .rst
file and it has already added the ANSYS file reader function.<br>
<br></div>However, I get limited information on how to do this.<br><br></div>According to the menu, I will have to create a Cmakelist.txt file like :<br><br><pre style="text-indent:0px;letter-spacing:normal;font-variant:normal;text-align:start;font-style:normal;background-color:rgb(249,249,249);font-weight:normal;padding:1em;line-height:1.1em;text-transform:none;border:1px dashed rgb(47,111,171);word-spacing:0px">

avtMyReaderFileFormat.cxx is the source of the VisIt reader,
VISIT_READER_NAME is the name of the class inside the source file,
VISIT_READER_TYPE is the type of file format the reader is, and the
VISIT_READER_FILE_PATTERN is a space delimitated string of file
extensions that the reader supports. But I still dont get how I could
change the the file and how to import it into Paraview and then view my
ANSYS file.<br>
