[Paraview] SelectInputVector attribute in the SurfaceLIC plugin

[Wilhelm Lionel]

Utkarsh,
Thanks for the so quick reply :)
Actually I explicitly load the plugin with the following command : 
LoadPlugin('/usr/lib/paraview-5.4/plugins/SurfaceLIC/libSurfaceLIC.so', remote=True, ns=globals())

I tried to load it with the command you suggested but it raises the same error.

While i'm continuing looking for a solution, I saw this old thred https://public.kitware.com/pipermail/paraview/2012-July/025681.html
I tried to use a command like 
extractBlock1Display_1 = Show(extractBlock1, View4)
extractBlock1Display_1.Representation = 'Surface LIC'
extractBlock1Display_1.SMProxy.GetProperty('SelectInputVectors').SetElement(0,['POINTS', 'vitesse'])

but it still does not work...
Thanks in advance,

Lionel

Lionel,

Does your Python script load the plugin explcitly? Currently none of
the state files capture which plugins are loaded, you have to manually
load the plugin. You can use  the following to load the plugin in your
script before creating any of the proxies.

LoadDistributedPlugin("SurfaceLIC", ns=globals())
