Hi,
I am attempting to visualize my openfoam simulation data. In the “cube” mode, the temperature data is displayed correctly. However, when I switch to the “point” view, all the data disappears. Upon switching back to the “cube” view, the temperature data can no longer be viewed correctly either.
I used “paraFoam” to open the ParaView. The blockMeshDict file is attached. Is it because I have too many grids? Or is it because my CPU memory is too small?
Cheers

This is just how your data is. Your cell data (what you call CubeView) contains data that is almost always the same value. There is an issue in your data generation process.
