i am clicking Force Input Offfset Field thinking both are same but paraview is just crashing again and again !!

and one more thing,

When i select Force Input Offset Field, Input Offset Field with input selection pop-up.

if that is meant to be replacement for the option in older version, what should i select in Input Offset Field.

Hello @Pravin_Poudel

As we saw in your [previous topic](https://discourse.paraview.org/t/vertex-identifier-field-option-not-present-in-ttktopologicalsimplification-filter-properties/10281), there is no need to explicitely give the offset field anymore in TTK. Providing a non-conforming array may indeed lead to error as the order of the vertices may not be strict anymore.

You may also use the [ttk-data](https://github.com/topology-tool-kit/ttk-data) repository. With the latest paraview and the provided TTK, I was able to load the `dragon.pvsm` state, which has been updated (contrary to the video).  
In this new version, there is no offset anymore:

Best,  
Charles
