Hello all,

Please, could you help me to solve this problem I have in paraview to export points into a cvs file?  
I visualize the solutions of my simulations in vtu extention, then I would like to export the data from the parameters displayed (density, deltaX, specific heat…) and convert them into an excel file. I tried to find the way in the options available in paraview, but I don’t have any idea how to proceed with this.

I attach an screenshot of my display.

thanks for your helo in advance.

Katherine

Hi,

What you are looking for is `File / Save Data` and then choose the `Comma or Delimited Files (.csv)` file format.
