Hi,

I am learning how to use PeleC and I have a very simple 2D simulation. The file contains 34 snapshots and I want to add all folders to the ‘builtin’. However, when I do it, paraview crashes. Could you please tell me how to do it? I am using ParaView 6.0.1

Hi @Boyuan_Yu

I reproduce the crash:
