ParaView 3.0 Deliverables: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 20:47, 30 November 2006

Descriptions

Deliverable	Description	Priority
Python	Support for python wrapping and programmable filters (that call pipeline).	5
Dynamic default parameters	ParaView 2 has lots of custom GUI code for filter parameters. ParaView 3 relies much more on server manager XML code and autogenerated panels. Missing from the new panels is the ability to vary parameters based on the size of the input geometry. This is very important in some filters such as the streamlines filter.	5
Readers/filters	The backbone of ParaView needs to be tight.	5
Annotation	Much of the annotation abilities in ParaView 2 are missing in ParaView 3 (corner annotation, turninging off axis annotation, annotation with time value) and some new features (labels on specific cells).	5
Pipeline browser	Already our pipeline browser is much better than its predecessor. However, there still some improvements to go. Of special importance are feature gaps like handling multiple inputs.	5
GUI cleanup	Make the GUI look nice, usable, and information rich. The parameter panels in the object inspector are of particular importance. The display tab also needs work. The spacing of toolbar icons can also be corrected.	5
Data analysis	Get back legacy features of picking by point Id and doing plot of point or cell variable over time.	5
Time	Ken Martin has recently updated the time support in VTK. We need to take advantage of that in ParaView 3. For example, we move the time setting parameters from reader parameters to pipeline keys.	5
Animation	We need to reimplement all of the Animation GUI features of ParaView 2.	5
Volume rendering GUI	Reimplement the ParaView 2 transfer function editors.	4
Custom filters/lookmarks	Lots of old features, lots of new features.	4
Linking	Add GUI to link server manager proxy objects (such as camera view and pipeline object parameters).	4
Client side delivery	Deliver data to client side with built in aggregation.	4
Icons	'Knuff said.	4
Testing	Testing, testing, and more testing.	4
Plotting	We got the nice charts, now make them really useful.	4
Color map	Improve the GUI. Manage connections between views.	3
Multiple outputs	Multiple outputs are useful for lookmarks/custom filters. It would also be nice to have node sets and side sets be handled as multiple outputs on the Exodus filter.	3
Selection	Fix bugs and add features.	3
Plugins	Rearchitect the "Load Module" feature and make it better.	3
Undo/redo	It's a new feature. Make sure it works right.	3
Documentation	Make online documentation available.	3
Display re-architecture	Make it easier to add new views. As the infovis comes online, we will be making many new views we need to integrate into ParaView and its vertical apps.	3
Multi-block	Improve multi-block support and make Exodus reader output multiblock.	1
Exodus writer	We broke the Exodus writer a while ago. Users have been complaining. We should fix it.	1
Array calculator	VisIt's calculator is way better than ours. For ParaView 3.2, we have should brainstorm to figure out what new features we want of our array calculator and how we implement them. There may also be some DSTK requirements here.	1
