Hi, I would like to extract the coordinate of the footprints of streamlines. Thanks in advance.
Um, what is a streamline footprint?
The endpoints of streamlines.
I can’t think of any existing filters that will do this easily. But I think a Programmable Filter with this script will extract the first and last point of each streamline:
input0 = inputs[0]
numCells = input0.GetNumberOfCells()
# Clear output
output.DeepCopy(vtk.vtkPolyData())
newPoints = vtk.vtkPoints()
newPoints.Resize(numCells * 2)
output.AllocateEstimate(0, 1, numCells, 2, 0, 0, 0, 0)
for cellIndex in range(numCells):
cellPoints = input0.GetCell(cellIndex).GetPoints()
firstPoint = cellPoints.GetPoint(0)
lastPoint = cellPoints.GetPoint(cellPoints.GetNumberOfPoints() - 1)
ptidx1 = newPoints.InsertNextPoint(firstPoint)
ptidx2 = newPoints.InsertNextPoint(lastPoint)
output.InsertNextCell(vtk.VTK_LINE, (ptidx1, ptidx2))
output.SetPoints(newPoints)
