foamToVTK not working on lagrangian particles

BigBlueDart · July 24, 2013, 19:43

I am trying to take a look at the icoUncoupledKinematicParcelFoam tutorials, but when I try to us foamToVTK and load the lagrangian vtk files into Paraview they come up empty. I can load the files, but they have no position, diameter, velocity, or other data. Any clues as to what the issue may be?

Ughh... Disregard. I just had to move forward a time step and the data was there. And the really sad part is I think this is the second time I've had to figure this out.
