Dear all,
I need to locate a face in an OpenFOAM mesh by knowing its ID using Paraview. Although this seems possible for cells and points using the spread sheet option after splitting the view (see attached screenshot), it is not obvious to me how to do the same for faces. Any help is highly appreciated, many thanks in advance. Regards, Timm |

If there is no other way you can create a faceSet with topoSet and visualize it as VTK-format.
In a topoSet dictionary, you need to provide the Face-IDs in a list by using the labelToFace-source as in the following example: Code:
{ name zeroArea_f; type faceSet; action new; source labelToFace; sourceInfo { value ( 339 13055 ... ); } } Code:
foamToVTK -faceSet zeroArea_f This is a cumbersone workaround. However, it works when there is no other option. Last edited by ViktorKL; May 4, 2020 at 04:16. |
