Title: Export of VTK file has incorrect cell type 22 - should be 9
Post by: peterw on June 09, 2024, 01:30:02 pm

Hello Roozbeh,

Thank you for providing ASONIS - I am finding it very useful useful.

I did however find one small problem in the export of the contour plots as VTK files.
Starting with Tutorial_06_en the export of the VTK file for contour xdisp, totdisp produced a VTK file that crashed ParaView 5.12.1 (the latest vesion).

On examining the VTK file generated by ADONIS, the problem is after the CELL_TYPES section where the cell type "22" is used, where "22" is the cell type VTK_QUADRATIC_TRIANGLE, when it should be "9" for VTK_QUAD.

Details in https://docs.vtk.org/en/latest/design_documents/VTKFileFormats.html

By replacing all lines with "22" with "9" to create a new modified VTK file  I was able to successfully open the modified VTK file in ParaView.

This is, I hope, an easy fix?

Peter

Thanks for the comment. The error is fixed in the newly released version (i.e 3.90.6). please give it a try and let me know if problem is fixed.

Hi Roozbeh,

I have checked the VTK output from the latest 3.90.6 version and the VTK file now has correct cell type - no problems opening the file in ParaView.

Thank you,
Peter
