Hi,
I am new to Paraview and I hope some of you can help me. I am trying to visualize an isosurface. I used to work with Matlab where I would input the data in 4D in the format: <X> <Y> <Z> <Intensity>
To use Paraview, I generated a dataset in VTK format as an unstructured grid with no cells. The Intensities are associated to the corners of the cells as follow:
# vtk DataFile Version 3.1
Volume
ASCII
DATASET UNSTRUCTURED_GRID
POINTS 197173 FLOAT
1 1 1
1 1 6
1 1 11
....
....
POINT_DATA 197173
SCALARS Intensities float
LOOKUP_TABLE default
20799.3681311062
20803.8373905225
20806.6752675851......
When I open this file, Paraview correctly identifies minimum and maximum values and the number of points. But I can't manage to visualize the contours.
Any suggestion? Do I need to generate CELLS data to draw isosurfaces? Can Paraview generate an isosurface solely from POINTS data? Thanks in advance.
