Problem with visualization of boxes in ParaView 4.0.1

Hi Jonathan,
watching the source code, rotations are missing for boxes. The fix is easy,
I will push it soon. How did you install yade (yadedaily, compiled from
source...)?
cheers

Hi Jan!

I have installed both yadedaily from package and yade-1.07.0 from source.

Maybe I have solved the problem using VTKExport from the export module:
- in the engine
        PyRunner(command='vtkExporter.exportPolyhedra()',iterPeriod=2500),
 PyRunner(command='vtkExporter.exportSpheres()',iterPeriod=2500),
        PyRunner(command='vtkExporter.exportFacets()',iterPeriod=2500),
- out of the engine
Prova="prova"
vtkExporter = export.VTKExporter(Prova)
vtkExporter.exportSpheres(ids="all",what=[('pos','b.state.pos')])
vtkExporter.exportFacets(ids="all",what=[('pos','b.state.pos')])
vtkExporter.exportPolyhedra(ids="all",what=[('orientation','b.state.se3')])

Now it seems to work correcttly since it is the same in the View. But maybe you can confirm it to me and help to write it in a smarter way if what I have written above is incorrect.

P.S.
As you can notice I have to use polyhedra instead of box

Cheers

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan,

the fix should be available soon in yadedaily (the fix is already in the
trunk version).

could you please post the full example with export.VTKExporter? According
to the lines you provided it should not work :-D

cheers

ahahahah lol

Thanks Jan Stránský, that solved my question.
