How to choose the time step to be processed in a python script

ParaView Support

Hi all,

I’ve written several scripts that open XMF files and processing them creates other entities that are saved to disk. I have worked with XMF files that contain only one time-step, now I would like to switch to temporal-collection but I have some difficulties. If I want to render thanks to this link: https://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Python/Dealing_with_time I know how to operate, but if I do not want to render and I want to perform a post processing how can I choose the time-step on which I want to operate?

I answer myself: filter Force Time!
