Hello,

is there any solution available to create a Forming limit diagram ( [Forming limit diagram - Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forming_limit_diagram)) in Paraview? Thanks.

Hi,

I’m not aware of that.

You can plot data array along another data array in `Line Chart View`.  
You can also use matplotlib to generate images from the `Python View`.

I don’t think ParaView is suitable for this. You would need software meant for tabular data processing and scientific plotting. Something like Excel, Wolfram Mathematica, Matlab or their free counterparts.
