When exporting to vtk from GiD postprocessing, vtu files are written correctly for each time-step but the time information is lost.
Since these files are normally read by Paraview, would it be possible to also add a ParaView Data file (.pvd)? This file establishes a correspondence between other files and current time. It looks like this:
<?xml version="1.0"?>Vtk doesn’t has any field to store the time step, then usually programs are codifying the time step as a suffix in the collection of filenames.
We will study your suggestion of write an extra .pvd file, at least for Paraview use, thanks
We have implemented this feature of write/read the .pvd file to store the time steps
To update your vtk import/export plugin simply unzip this attached file
vtk.zip (20.2 KB)
inside the folder
\plugins\Import
replacing the current files.
Note: the plugin is pure-tcl, it is valid for all GiD versions and platforms
Thank you for your reply and implementation,
I tried the export part of the feature today for the first time with this dataset: https://we.tl/t-iLlkvAN5GU (post.res file, ~400kb)
I get an empty warning window, a message “Problems writing” in the CL and nothing happens.
Could you try replicating this problem please?
