When saving a stream tracer to a CSV file, there’s an option to select what data is written. Even though “Reason for termination” is selected, it doesn’t get written to the file. Does anyone know how to get around this issue?

Thank you.

ReasonForTermination is a CellData array, not a PointData array. When saving a dataset to .csv, only points and point data arrays are saved.

A work around this is to use use first the CellDataToPointData filter.
