Hi community,

I have a time dependent model. I choose the points data and showed in a spreadsheet view. I want to save the data by clicking export spreadsheet, but this way only save the current timestep. Is there a way to save the select data for all time steps?

I tried to do plot selection over time and then show this as a spreadsheet view, but it seems automatically did a average for all the data for each time step.

Thank you.

You can do `Extract Selection` ![image](https://discourse.paraview.org/uploads/default/original/2X/8/808633f83787890703bf5b84d31ae562d13f4607.png) and then use `Save Data` ![image](https://discourse.paraview.org/uploads/default/original/2X/2/24cf1e77f607ee052c0475d2041bba725d0ef217.png) on the result. In the save file dialog, select `Comma or Tab Delimited Files` as the file type. When you select the output file, you will get a second dialog box that provides a `Write Time Steps` option.
