The script is written in Python and I am using the <a href="https://bitbucket.org/pauloh/pyevtk">EVTK</a> module’s high-level API, evtk.hl.gridToVTK().</div><div><br></div><div>This EVTK interface requires providing structured x, y, and z coordinates. For 1D, and 2D data, I set the mesh and data extent in the upper dimension(s) to one node with coordinate zero. This makes a line or plane, but sort of described in 3D.</div><div><br></div><div>This technique works for 2D. When I load the data set, ParaView switches to 2D camera view and displays my mesh and data.</div><div>For my 1D data, nothing is displayed. The 3D camera view comes up. I think I can manipulate the view to show me the linear mesh extent, but I can’t display the data. <b>I actually want to display the data in the ParaView Line Plot mode. How can I do that?</b></div><div>(I’m using ParaView 4.1 on Mac.)</div><div><br></div><div>The attached vts file is an example sinusoid versus x. You can see in the screenshot that the Tabular view shows the data correctly. So, I think my script and vtk file are reasonably correct. Of course, the pseudo-3D data representation is sort of a hack I’m trying.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for your thoughts!</div><div><br></div><div>-Noah</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></body></html>
