Heyo!

I’d like to share what I am looking at here

 ![image](https://discourse.paraview.org/uploads/default/original/2X/a/a412271cd6f6c1bb07041d2cebeff49346acafb9.png)

I have the .vtu files to be clear.  
I’d like to share what I’m looking at, exactly the way it is, including precision to my coworker. How can I do this?

Thanks!

ParaView state files record the current state of all elements in a scene in ParaView. You can save a state file with File → Save State… You’ll need to send both it and the .vtu files to your coworker.

Please see the [ParaView Guide docs](https://docs.paraview.org/en/latest/UsersGuide/savingResults.html?highlight=state#saving-state) for how to work with state files. Your coworker will need to pay attention to the “Load State Options” section to point ParaView to the location of the .vtu files - unless your file system has the same layout as your coworkers, ParaView will need to be told where to look for the .vtu files referenced in the state file.
