== Descriptions ==

These are the deliverables that we expect to complete for ParaView 3.2 (at least in part).

! Deliverable
! Description
! Owner
|-
| Better testing
|
* Increase coverage
* Test compositing
* Memory checking
|
* Clint (increasing coverage)
* ? (Test compositing)
* All (Testing your new stuff)
|-
| Display rearchitecture
| 
* Make it easier to add new views.
* Redesign class hierarchy to avoid reimplementing client/server for every view type.
* Integrate with view architecture of Titan.
* Support desktop delivery without MPI as part of this.
| Utkarsh with Clint helping with Qt
|-
| Multi-block
| Improve multi-block support:
* Multi-block selection
* Multi-block client delivery
* Block inspector
* Volume rendering
Work may continue into ParaView 3.4.
| Dave D.
|-
| Exodus reader
|
* Switch to Dave T.'s new reader (with support for face/edge data).
* Have multi-block output (only if losing no functionality).
* Look into fast temporal plots.
** Support global variables.
* Multiple outputs for main geometry, node/edge/face sets, and global variables?
| Eric
|-
| Exodus writer
| 
* Exodus-specific metadata should be maintained.
* Support multiple time steps.
| Eric
|-
| Animation
|
* GUI components for viewing all tracks (perhaps like in ParaView 2 or like a filmstrip keyframe viewer or both).
* Support for viewing multiple animation steps at once (maybe held off until 3.4).
** Filmstrip viewer.
** Comparative vis manager.
* Support disconnect from server, create animation
|
* Clint (GUI)
* Utkarsh (SM)
|-
| Selection
|
* Selecting points/cells from multiple sources.
* Frustum selection.
* Threshold selection (integrated with histogram bar chart).
* Selecting blocks (and providing some sort of manipulation like turn off).
** Dependent on multiblock functionality.
* Selection based on probe (handle widget). It should support multiple handle widgets.
| Dave D.
|-
| Annotation
|
* Much better labeling of selection and datasets in general. 
** We need a way of visually matching a selection and an element inspector.
** ParaView 2 pick showed labels right on rendering.
** Large selections may require multiresolution labeling.
* Better controls on text widgets
** Specify font.
** Line up on corners.
| Yumin
|-
| Spreadsheet view
| Implement a model for a client side table that allows users to browse their data. It should only bring the portion of that data the user is viewing to the client (or a bigger cache that is still small)
| Utkarsh and Berk
|-
| Line chart/Bar chart
|
* Better labeling and annotation
** Legends
* Line styles
* Better zoom
** Rubber band zoom
* Axis controls
** Specify range, major/minor ticks
** Logarithmic
* Better variable selection on plots
** Automatically unselect ids and time
** Implement select all/none checkbox in header of variable table in display tab (like in exodus reader variable selector).
| Mark
|-
| Support for multiple output
|
* Allow sources with multiple outputs of different types and conceptual meanings.
* Support for custom filters with more than one output.
* Possible support for Exodus reader.
* GUI/Pipeline inspector an open issue.
| Berk with help from Clint and Mark
