Hi everyone,

I have data located at cell centered. The hic is that for the mesh location i have only points at cell center location.
I ve tried to use "cellcentered" with this header :

VARIABLES = "X", "Y", "Z", "DATA",
zone I=10, J=15, K= 2
, DATAPACKING=BLOCK,VARLOCATION=([1,2,3,4]=CELLCENTERED)

Tecplot don't understand and give me 2 errors :
1) Aspect ratio exceeds ratio limit. The ratio has been adjusted
2) Axis Mode has been reset to be Independent

In 3D the cells are upside down.

(The loader in Paraview says that :
Unable to find any meshes)

If anyone has a solution to load this mesh.

Best

Guillaume

I know itīs quite a few years since this post, but today I encountered the same Tecplot messages loading a mesh. The issue was that the mesh was displayed terribly distorted and I had to change the following settings to display it correctly:


- Go to Plot/3D Axis Limits..
-> Set Aspect ratio limit to a very high number (e.g. 750 worked for me)
-> Set Aspect ratio reset = 1


- Go to Plot/Axis..
-> Set Dependency to XYZ dependent
-> Click Reset Size/Dependency


Hope that helps anyone who encounters the same issues
