Sometimes then the script should create a new slide with defined parameter about scalar factor, origin and normal vector, the function returns a value error. The message told me that the point data array cannot be found in the simulation. I tested the function with a lot of different parameters and recognizes that the function does not fail because of the variance of parameters. After repeating of calling the function with the same parameters, the function worked sometimes and it fails. So now I don’t know if it is a mistake of myself or it is a bug in ParaView. <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Maybe you can give me a short answer about it.
