Hi All,

I'm sort of beginner/less user of paraview. But currently now that my usage is increased, I would like to know about the customizing visualization of water flowing/falling on generic surfaces.

For CFD modeler/scientist it's easy and quick to understand, the visualizing of water flowing over a 'non watery' generic surface, where 'blue color' shows void fraction of 0, defining that region/elements of geometry has no liquid present, thus considered as gas. And the 'red color' shows void fraction of 1, defining elements/region of the geometry has no gas present, thus considered as liquid.

But, for common man/woman, this looks weird, they defining it as 'blood' flowing over blue surfaces. And it's difficult for them to contemplate the fact that its water, and not blood.

Hence, I would like to know the procedure/python script to change the colors to 'water color' (something like light blue/ teal color), and for surfaces to grey or beige color.

Thank you.

Regards.

Ash Kot.

Hi,

You can always edit the colormap using the Color Map Editor or change the color of your individual surfaces using the "Solid color" options.

You can extract your surfaces and give them a single color by using the "Extract block" feature.
