ParaView shows old Mesh regions from other cases
 
Hi everyone,

I am using ParaView 4.3.1 and 5.0.0 to show my mesh. In both versions every time I load in a mesh, the program shows Mesh Regions from previous cases that are not part of my current case. How do I get rid of them? When I try to load them, while having a the file of the other case loaded, provides no geometry whatsoever.
I try to load the file via an empty *.foam file.

Does anyone have a clue how that happened or at least of to get rid of it? Does anyone have a solution or an idea? Do you need more information?

Hi everyone,

I found a solution. In case anyone else is experiencing those "ghost" fields: Somehow some standard settings were set in ~/.config/Paraview/ParaView-UserSettings.json. However, when you delete your "sources" part like this

Code:

  "sources" : {
      }

it should remove the elements.
