Probably a version of TTK issue, but again a question for @Charles_Gueunet and @julien-tierny 🙂

There is no TTK forum yet (I think?) but feel free to tag @Charles_Gueunet and @julien-tierny on your questions directly.

hi there,

if you’re looking at the spheres computed from the scalar field critical points, then you want to color them by “CriticalType” (it may have been renamed from “NodeType” along the different versions indeed).

for TTK issues, you can also directly post to the TTK user google group:  
[https://groups.google.com/g/ttk-users](https://groups.google.com/g/ttk-users)

I hope this helps.

best,
