I have an XMF file that I’m currently processing. I’ve been using the selection query tool for the past weeks. After going back to ParaView, I’m unable to use this tool. Every time I attempt to run a query, the program crashes and I get the dreaded Mac OS unresponsive spinning wheel. I’ve trying deleting the software and downloading it again, but nothing changed. Any help is greatly appreciated!
