I have two cases where I am simulating a wedge being dropped. One that is using the overset mesh in v1712 and another with the wedge as immobile and the water flowing towards it. I am trying to get pressure plots of the wedge along its surface as it impacts. For the immobile wedge I just used "plot over line" of a slice I created in paraview. Simple enough. But for the overset case I would have to input new point locations each time. Is there some function I'm missing?

You can try to use PlotOverLine and change the position of the points with AnimationView.

I do not know if I understand your case correctly but If you have predefined locations you can specify "verticallines" in a textfile in the systemfolder:

verticalline

{
type sets;
functionObjectLibs ("libsampling.so");
writeControl timeStep;
writeInterval 10;
fields (p);
interpolationScheme cellPointFace;
setFormat raw;

sets
(
location1
{
type face;
axis z;
start (X X X;// Your Coordinates
end (X X X );

}

location2
{
type face;
axis z;
start (X X X );
end (X X X);
}
....
{
}
}
you need the follwong entry in the control dict
#include "verticalline"
you get for all steps but on fixedpredefened locations. So I do not know how to modify it for dynamic location?

Thanks for the suggestions, they were very helpful. What I ended up doing was using the Plot Over Intersection Curves function instead of Plot Over Line in Paraview. It had the same functionality, but supported the overset body movement as well.
