Hi all,

I have data of for a radial basis function expanding in radius over several time steps. I would like to build a contour plot which has 1 contour line for each of the timesteps in one singular ring. E.g the inner most contour would be time = 1 and then each contour line outside of this would be the following time steps.

How can this be done in the paraview GUI?

Thanks!
