I ran into a strange display artefact where some fields display incorrectly. I attach two files: bad.vtu (partly broken) and (412.6 KB) good.vtu (256.1 KB) which works as expected.
The difference between the files is that bad.vtu
has an additional field u
which is not in the good.vtu
file. The existence of this field breaks visualization of some but not all other fields in the file, see screenshots.
good.vtu
, second field (Visco-plastic strain 11 mode: 2
)
bad.vtu
, second field (Visco-plastic strain 11 mode: 2
)
Note in particular that the first field still displays correctly (not included as a screenshot).
bad.vtu
, second field (Visco-plastic strain 11 mode: 2
) with field u
deactivated
Note that the u
field is deactivated, which “fixes” the display.
What could be the problem here? Is the file misformed? Bug in ParaView?
I thought it might be some scaling issue or similar, but there is only a factor of 100 between the fields, and it is strange it only happens with some fields.
This is in ParaView 5.9.0.
