Now, look at the spreadsheet view. Point Indexes on the main 3d view and on the spreadsheet show as their real point IDs.
* Select Show only selected elements.
Now, look at the spreadsheet view. Point Indexes have changed to go from 0 through 6. This may be the index in the spreadsheet, but is useless.
Please change this to show the Point ID. Further, please change the label to be Point Id, not Point Index.

I am slowly learning how to visualize materials with OSPRay. So, you have a learning curve occurring here also. Wood looks spectacular. If you haven't created texture coordinates, picture looks bad, but there is no warning. We need a warning if no texture coordinates. Further, I am pretty sure we will soon need to come up with other ways to calculate texture coordinates.
I actually like the Aluminum much better now, as I used a better object. disk_out_ref.exo has too large of cells. Also, the textureMapToCylinder uses cell faces, rather than points. This leaves big flat areas. Fixed by using Sources/Cylinder.
I see lots of little random pixels. This was corrected by changing Samples per Pixel. 7 works pretty well. We need to do two things:
- Figure out where these random pixels are coming from. I believe they are an error. We shouldn't mask them - we should fix them.
- Have ParaView move to 1 Sample per Pixel when mouse is down, Change Samples per Pixel to say 7 or 9 when mouse is up.
How I tested:
- Sphere. Change resolutions to 64X64.
- Transform (move the sphere to the side)
- TextureMapToSphere. Wood.
- Cylinder. Change Resolution to 64x64. (Cylinder appears to already have texture coordinates.)
- Transform. Rotate the Cylinder 90 degrees.5.13 (Summer 2024)https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/issues/18166Camera Link doesn't get traced2019-05-15T17:27:08-04:00Utkarsh AyachitCamera Link doesn't get tracedLinking camera between two render views doesn't get traced in Python.Linking camera between two render views doesn't get traced in Python.5.7 (Summer 2019)Cory Quammencory.quammen@kitware.comCory Quammencory.quammen@kitware.comhttps://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/issues/18135Find Data defaults to wrong filter2018-05-18T20:54:42-04:00W.

Currently the transform filter only works on data types that subclass vtkPointData. However, the transform filter should work on regular data like images and rectilinear grids too. Both of these types of grids can be translated or scaled by changing the origin or spacing between points. If some other transform is given (such as a rotation), then either of these grids can be converted to a vtkStructuredGrid (a curvilinear grid) with no more overhead than one would expect from a filter than generates new coordinate arrays. (In fact, it would be reasonable to always convert the grid to curvilinear.)
