Hi friends
I installed OpenFOAM 2.3.0 and ParaView 4.1.0 I did the first tutorial "Lid-driven cavity flow" in user guide (presented in the official website of OpenFOAM). But first of all the discribtion is not compatible with GUI in ParaView. It seems the user guide is an old version guide. And another problem is that I couldn't see the results as the same as in tutorial presented. Please help me if you have the answer!! Thank you |

Quick request: please show images of what you're seeing and to which images your referring to in the User Guide.
Otherwise, I would say that it all seems perfectly fine to me |

I have had the same issue. The differences are sufficient to throw a new user, and small enough not to be noticed by one who is familiar.
Classic issue of testing introductory documentation:the difficulty of getting the correct level of tester and once they have run through a few times they are no longer the correct level. The act of testing changes the tester. IMHO: However, in the scale of documentation omissions that exist in OpenFoam, this one is relatively small beer. Fully commented files in the Tutorial examples would be higher up the list. |

Greetings to all!

ParaView 3.12.0 was the default version for all OpenFOAM versions since 2.0 to 2.2, if I'm not mistaken. Here the differences between the images and 3.12.0 isn't very big. Problem is that OpenFOAM 2.3 currently has support for both ParaView 3.12.0 and 4.1.0. But ParaView is 4.x is following a new interface that is considerably different. Although the mnemonic is as simple as the following:

Thank you friends, but is there any documentation about ParaView which can be used? (tutorial or guide)
The help of software may be useful but it just works in the ParaView window! is there any individual help document? |
