Point labels available with PV 5.7?

ParaView Support
7

Hi @cobo,

I’ve done it the following way inside a ParaViewWeb app:

[Line Dataset] > ExtractTopHoleFilter > DataLabelRepresentation

I’ve created a new Representation via an XML file (no code) that I load as a plugin in PV 5.8
I’ve created a filter ExtractTopHoleFilter using the python plugin infrastructure.

That way, by loading a Python and an XML file as plugins, I was able to do exactly what you are trying to achieve.

For reference here is the XML part, for the filter, I’m sure you can figure it out.

<ServerManagerConfiguration>
  <ProxyGroup name="representations">
    <Extension name="GeometryRepresentation">
      <RepresentationType
        subproxy="DataLabelRepresentation"
        text="Labels"
      />

      <SubProxy>
        <Proxy
            name="DataLabelRepresentation"
            proxygroup="representations"
            proxyname="DataLabelRepresentation"
        />

        <ShareProperties subproxy="SurfaceRepresentation">
          <Exception name="Input" />
          <Exception name="Visibility" />
        </ShareProperties>

        <ExposedProperties>
            <Property name="PointFieldDataArrayName" />
            <Property name="PointLabelBold" />
            <Property name="PointLabelColor" />
            <Property name="PointLabelFontFamily" />
            <Property name="PointLabelFontSize" />
            <Property name="PointLabelFormat" />
            <Property name="PointLabelItalic" />
            <Property name="PointLabelJustification" />
            <Property name="PointLabelOpacity" />
            <Property name="PointLabelShadow" />
            <Property name="PointLabelVisibility" />
            <Property name="MaximumNumberOfLabels" />
        </ExposedProperties>
      </SubProxy>
    </Extension>
  </ProxyGroup>
</ServerManagerConfiguration>

HTH,
