Hello,

I was wondering if it was possible to use stream tracer to observe changes in some cell data over the line? Im working with a multi block dataset and am using velocity to generate the stream lines. The cell data like temperature are not copied over which I would be interested in to generate plots.

Thanks

The stream tracer does not support interpolating the CellData yet.

## Hello Please, there is any update on this? I see this question was posed in 2020. As far as I see, the streamtracer in paraview (v5.9.0) still does not interpolate (or sample) CellData, right? BW Javier
