"No X column is set" in Plot Data filter

ParaView Support

I’m attempting to make a simple line plot of PressureCoeff_AVG vs. Points_X using the data in the attached file.

avgTaps_2.vtp (11.2 KB)

  • Load data file
  • Add a Plot Data filter, hit Apply
  • Uncheck “Use Index For X Axis” and set X Array Name to Points_X

I get an error that says "[paraview ] vtkPlotPoints.cxx:560 ERR| vtkPlotLine (0xf320670): No X column is set (index 0).

I’ve seen this in both versions 6.0.1 and 6.1.0. The data I’m loading looks OK in the RenderView. Am I misusing this filter? The only workaround I’ve found is to insert a Python Calculator before the Plot Data filter that just copies points[:,0] to some other variable.
