New time manager with real time data
Hi,
I'm working on LidarView, a ParaView based app, and we use ParaView 5.11 time manager to read lidar pcap (so real time network data).
In !6245 (merged) (and more specifically 6c26b49e), PLAYMODE_REALTIME
and SetDuration
was deprecated. As we use this mode and the duration
variable to set the frame speed, we cannot emulate "real time" data anymore in LidarView with ParaView master (or at least the same way we used to do).
In LidarView, we used this mode to emulate real time (or specific speeds relative to real time (to run 5 seconds every second for instance)), and this is a feature that we believe would also make sense in any context where live data has been recorded and a replay respecting the actually elapsed time matters.
Do you think this could be re-implemented / reverted? Or should that be considered that it is too specific to LidarView and therefore re-implemented there?
