Hi dear OpenFOAMers,
I am trying to generate streamlines in Paraview in some domain where I have just simulated the fluid flow. As far as I see, the only possible seed types (where the streamlines will have their origins) are Point Source and Line Source. For me it would be quite naturally, however, to generate streamlines starting, for example, from the inlet, i.e., by taking it as an area source. Is it possible in Paraview? I work now with the version 3.8.0, under Linux SuSE 11.

Regards,
Alexey Kochevsky
