Hi Zhang.<br>
<br>
Just a last info: since my last mail, I have made some tests with
old binary Tecplot (.plt) files, and I discovered that some files
are readable, but some files are not readable and give the same
error message. In fact, it depends on the Tecplot version that has
built these files. So, if you have problems with old (.plt) files,
you may try to convert them into a recent version of the (.plt)
format using a recent Tecplot release before reading them with
Paraview.<br>
<br>
Have a good week-end.<br>
<br>
Richard.<br>

Hello.<br>
<br>
Glad to see that you have solved your problem. It is true that
you need the Vislt software for reading Tecplot files, but this
software is included in the last Paraview release 3.98.1. I am
using the last binaries found on the Paraview download pages,
and I can read Tecplot binary or ASCII files without adding
software.<br>
<br>
On older Paraview releases, the Vislt software was delivered as
a plugin that was not activated by default. In that case, you
had to go through the menu "Tools->Manage plugins", then
select the "Vislt" plugin, click the "Load selected" button,
close Paraview, and finally reopen Paraview to get the plugin
activated. So, check your Paraview version, and you may want to
update it for the last 3.98.1 release.<br>
<br>
But take care: there are two Tecplot readers. If you open a
(.tp) ASCII Tecplot file, you will have the choice between
"Tecplot Files" or "Tecplot Files (Vislt)". I don't know exactly
what are the differences, but if a reader fails, try the other.<br>
<br>
But the Tecplot readers are not perfect, and that may explain
your ERROR message. Sometimes, with Tecplot ASCII files, I have
to remove from the header some options that the readers do not
recognize. Try to have the simplest headers without "exotic"
options when using ASCII files, and the readers will be OK.<br>
<br>
If you have again problems with (.plt) files, feel free to
provide a (short) sample file.<br>
<br>
Richard<br>

Hello.<br>
<br>
Paraview 3.98.1 is able to read Tecplot ASCII or Binary
files.<br>
<br>
For Tecplot (.plt) files, menu "File->Open" and choose
"Tecplot Binary <br>
Files (Vislt) (*.plt)" in the "Files of type" list before
selecting your <br>
(.plt) file.<br>
<br>
