ParaView display problem

holzmichel · March 10, 2009, 10:06

Hello all,

I installed OF-1.5 and compiled everything.
Here is my prob:

I wanted to try the cavity-test like the manual of OF-1.5.
When paraView has started nothing is shown in the display window still i push my left mouse button. when i press it the figure would displayed for max 1 second. what is the reason? how could i correct it that i see the figure in the display-window all the time?

regards

Michel

Hi Michel, are you using Ubuntu Intrepid? I had the same problem. Set your visual effects to "none" in the appearance preference. It is some graphical display issue.

Thousend thanks. I set the visual effects to "none" and now it works perfect.

No problem. And if you ever consider recompiling paraView, make sure you get the older version of Qt( which I was never able to find).

Hi, im having a problem like holzmichel. After starting paraFoam and clicking the Apply-button, the model doesnt appear (tested this for different tutorials). In the Information-tab is shows that the is imported (for icoFoam/cavity: unstructured grid, 400 cells 882 points). Using foamToVTK works, so i think its a Problem in displaying the Foam files!?
Also turned visual effucts in appearance off.

Im using Ubuntu 9.04, actual OpenFoam-1.5-dev and running ParaView-3.4.0 with Qt-4.3.5. On Ubuntu 8.10 everything worked fine with the same config.

Anyone suggestions?
