<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div><div><div>I have stripped down Plugin/MantaView until all compilation problems disappear. What is left, is basically a plugin for a vtkOpenGLRenderer.<br></div>The code, consisting of only two minimal classes, is attached and can be built using:<br></div>unzip snippet-viewplugin.zip && mkdir build && cd build && cmake && make<br></div>(tested with ParaView 5.4.1)<br><br></div>This brings me back to my initial question. I'd like to show a custom view, made of a number of Qt widgets (buttons and text) to show important statistics.<br>In SnippetView.xml, the view is declared as:<br><SnippetViewProxy class="vtkPVSnippetView" ... base_proxygroup="views" base_proxyname="RenderView" ...<br><br></div>How can I replace 'base_proxyname="RenderView"' by some generic view, to be filled with widgets? "View" or "ViewBase" are not recognized as base proxies.</div>Thank you<br></div>Kolja<br><br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Jan 14, 2018 at 5:05 PM, Kolja Petersen <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:petersenkolja@gmail.com" target="_blank">petersenkolja@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Dear plugin developers,</div><div>I need to implement a custom view to present datasets in a detailed editable format.</div><div><br></div><div>This link says that the plugin tutorial is obsolete for the view part:</div><a href="https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Plugin_HowTo#Adding_a_custom_view_.2A_obsolete_.2A" target="_blank">https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/<wbr>ParaView/Plugin_HowTo#Adding_<wbr>a_custom_view_.2A_obsolete_.2A</a><br><div><br></div><div>The Examples/Plugins/GUIView suggested in the link doesn't exist.
