I had a quick question, I have binary data sets from tecplot (.plt) before I realized my solver can output in EnSight format (which works best for me in PV). The problem is I cannot convert this .plt to the ensight format without re-doing the run.
I sought to directly load my data from tecplot then export it as an Ensight or PV compatible dataset but when loaded, the file is read as a 2D model instead of a 3D model, which it should be. I will attach it here:
Further, when I load another, correct ensight formatted data, it is read as a 3D model and I use the “resample to image” for volume rendering. My question is 1) how do I load my 3D model from binary tecplot files (.plt) to be read as a “3D” model not 2D? and 2) Is there a preferred approach to achieve the same visualization (resample to image using tecplot data)/sample script/ approach I can use to write the data to ensight format?
Or would I have to manually write the data to an ensight case file and corresponding variable data set files? Thank you.
Sure I have tried that already but the issue stem from only being able to read it as a 2d data set even though it is 3d. The export options only allow for vtm format but this too remains 2d when loaded, but that is why I have attached the file for your reference. Do you think it may be better to manually write it to via a script?
Please see if you can try it out as I could not get it read as a 3d model. If I load the exact file in tecplot it is treated as 3d (note the x, y, z coordinate data). If not it’s ok. Thanks for the help anyways.
There’s a problem in reading the file via the VisIt plugin.
