Hi,

I use paraview without the foamreader. So that I convert to VTK using foamToVTK. I have paraview installed (built myself) on a multiprocessor machine(8 processors). Now I have these basic questions.

1. Do I have to decomposePar the case before opening it in paraview?
2. If yes, then when I do foamToVTK, I dont get the time directories in the processor* folders written into the VTK folder. Is there a way I can write the subdomains into VTK ?
3. When I do mpirun -np 8 paraview, does it work for a non-decomposed case too?
4. Or should I mandatorily install the foam reader to do this?

PS: I have not installed any parallel reader after building paraview.
