Previously, I successfully ran a chtMultiRegion case in which I could view streamlines by opening up a postProcessing/sets file in paraView.


I then used this case as a template for another case, but this time it isn't creating the sets folder, and for the life of me, I can't figure out why.


In the first case, under the postProcessing folder were these folders:
- cuttingPlane
- fluid
- sets


But in the second case, under postProcessing are:
- bod
- fieldsMinMax
- forceCoeffs1
- yPlus


During the run log, it says:


streamLine streamLines write:
seeded 0 particles
Tracks:0
Total samples:0


So something is not right.


But I have

#include "streamLines" in the controlDict, and the 'streamLines' file in the system folder.


Attached are the controlDict, streamLines and run output files. If more are needed, please let me know.


Why isn't the 'sets' folder with associated streamline data being created?
