Generating line plots for each time step separately

ParaView Support

I figured it out by myself. Here the code snipped, which did the trick:

i=0

SetActiveSource(rTT_)

tsteps = rTT_.TimestepValues

PlotOverLine1 = PlotOverLine(Input=passArrays1, Source='High Resolution Line Source')

Data = Show()

view = GetActiveView()

j=0
i=i+1
for TimeStepNum in range(len(tsteps)):
    view.ViewTime = tsteps[TimeStepNum]
    PlotOverLine1.Source.Point1 = [l1[j],0.0,T]
    PlotOverLine1.Source.Point2 = [l1[j],B,T]
    Render()
    writer = CreateWriter("Export"+str(i)+".%d.csv" %(TimeStepNum), PlotOverLine1)
    #writer.FieldAssociation = "Point Data"
    writer.UpdatePipeline()
    Render()
    del writer
    j=j+1

For clarification:
rTT_ is the name of my unstructured grid reader and passArrays1 is a filter for the desired quantities I want to write (speeds up the whole process). In variable l1, the coordinate (in x-direction) of the line plot was pre defined for every time step.

I hope this might help someone in the future.

Kind regards,

Lukas
