(Venus - High) Bad data when using logs with large numbers
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
*ParaView, local server, XP (probably doesn't matter), 3.4.0. I will replicate with the trunk tonight.
*Run disk_out_ref.exo. Turn all variables on. Apply.
*Clip, apply.
*Calculator.
**Result Array Name = BadData
**Formula = (Temp-293.14)*1e11
**Apply. You should now be coloring with BadData.
*Edit Color Map.
**Check Use logarithmic Scale. Close.
*Surface With Edges.
*+X
*Select Points On, and then rubber band select the lower half of the lower right edge. In other words, select the bottom 2 rows, and about 4 columns of cells.
*View/ Selection Inspector.
**Point Label/ Label Mode BadData
*Now, zoom in on the lower right section, and rotate so you can see the labels.
Bug - Notice that we have created color bands. Furthermore, if you look at the bottom of the row, there are numerous blue points that should be whiteish - they are in the range of 1.2e11 to 1.6e11. This should be white.
See attached screenshot. The banding is not an artifact - it shows up on my screen.
I am marking this one important, since data is being misrepresented.
