paraview problems
Paraview is as important as the meshing and solvers. It is the prime way to access results. More than half of the queries/problems posted on these boards and others regarding openfoam are related to paraview and parafoam and the special readers.
Couldn't a knowledgeable person go over the paraview related queries, the installation scripts (which fail in many cases) and the documentation concerned with paraview access using parafoam and the special reader. Many people don't have the perseverance I do in getting this running and likely give up and move onto other software. I think these issues need to be resolved and are essential for the increase in the size of the openfoam community. tom kosvic |

But if I installed openfoam2212 everything works fine.... I'm confused... Can someone help me explaned what is happening? Kind regards, Kossivi |
