UI Improvements
Better Labeling
  • This has been on and off many lists, we really need better labeling support for data. The current mechanism of "selecting and labeling" is cumbersome to say the least.
deferred
Packaging/Deployment
ParaView using External-VTK Add support to build ParaView using a pre-built VTK Utkarsh/Marcus active development
Modularization
  • Enable building tiny binaries for co-processing for ParaView by incorporating VTK modularization into ParaView.
Dave DeMarle active development
Multiblock Improvements
Toggle visibility of individual blocks
  • Provide VTK-level infrastructure to toggle visibility and other properties for individual blocks in a composite dataset.
  • Develop user-interface to allow setting up of properties for individual blocks.
Plotting Improvements
Plotting composite datasets
  • Currently only 1 block can be plotted at a time. We need to allow plotting multiple blocks in the same chart, whenever applicable.
Statistics Enhancements
Extensions to Find Data
  • Enable locating elements using statistical queries.
Philippe
Extensions to Calculator
  • Enable adding advanced statistically computed arrays using Array Calculator
Philippe
Plugins
Python support
  • We need better support for plugins in Python. They seem like second class citizens right now: no easy way for loading distributed plugins, PV_PLUGIN_PATH is not respected.
  • Python trace must have some indication of what plugins were loaded.
Done (3.14)
XML Plugins
  • Another second class citizen in the plugin world, it cannot be auto-loaded, I wonder if it even gets saved in the list.
