I’m under the impression something in the comparative visualization is not working as intended, but I tested with 5.6.0, 5.8.1, and the latest nightly (5.8.1-1454-gf84473df96), so maybe I’m just not doing it properly.
Shortly said, the “visibility” option of the comparative view makes the given dataset either visible in every layout or in none of them based on the value (0 or 1) of the last cell (bottom right) of the visibility table.
So, if I actually want to have different datasets displayed in different layouts, I use the threshold filter with the “Range (1)” variable. Doing that I’m able to show and hide datasets in each of the comparative view layouts as I wish.
Indeed, visibility was not intended to controllable across views the way you’re wanting. Using another filter to achieve the same, as you do is perhaps a reasonable workaround.
Hello @utkarsh.ayachit,
I’m having the same problem but can’t do this workaround because I’m working with raster.
I want to display 2 different rasters in the comparative view but I’m enable choose which data put in separated comparative views.
I have the same impression that @Louis, it seems that “comparative view” mode have been built in order to do that task but it’s not working.
Thanks in advance, Frank
I don’t think you want to use Comparative View for your case. If you have four different models that you simply want to compare in 4 views: do the following instead:
split the main render view into 4 using the split buttons
link cameras between all views
now show each dataset in each of the views as you want.
Alternatively, there’s a meta-file that you can setup to which you provide the 4 datasets as the datasets defining the parameter sweep. I am not fully aware of that capability. cc-ing a few folks who’d have better insight on the meta-file approach: @berkgeveci, @danlipsa
