[OpenFOAM] Paraview annotate time

Aravind_Krish · August 19, 2016, 07:41

Hi i am using Paraview 3.98.1 for postprocessing .
I am calculating the mixture formation in the cylinder.
I am generating pictures for every crank angle and i want to mention the crank angle using the annotate time.
But i am not able to insert the degree symbol.
Is there a possiblity i can insert a degree symbol for the crank angle???

You can try $^\circ$ for example.
Paraview accepts a few Latex commands.

I tried but it didnt work out...
i dont know if the format is correct.

>>This is what i typed in the format space provided in the annotate time
"Crank Angle: %3.1f$^\circ$ca"

Is the format correct??

It's working in 5.1.2 and I'm sure it worked in 4 also. It should work in your version as well.
For me the normal ° symbol is also working...
I think you have to try a bit or switch to a newer version.
