This document provides a design for removing the Selection Inspector and upgrading the Find Data Dialog to provide all capabilities currently provided by Selection Inspector.

User Interface

  • The Selection Inspector will be removed from the ParaView application in its entirety.
  • The Find Data Dialog will be updated as shown in the mock-up above. It is a non-modal dialog with ability to be docked in the UI (possibly).
  • There are 4 components to this dialog:
    • Creating/Defining the query/selection.
    • Viewing the currently selected elements.
    • Controlling the display parameters for the showing the selection in the active view.
    • Follow-on actions i.e. logical next steps after making a new selection e.g. extract selection, etc.
