make the format of the numbers independant of the system
In the calculator, the format of the float depends of the language of the system.
0,2 in french for example.
0.2 in english.
That should be independant.3 votes -
Support of integration points in finite elements
Paraview is a wonderful program. What is please the current status of integration points on unstructured mesh ? Mapping of stress/strain to nodes presents a lot of troubles and may violate discontinuity. Thanks.

Keyboard shortcuts
It would be nice to have the ability to associate all kinds of Paraview actions with keyboard shortcuts. Currently, I see shortcuts only for basic actions like Open File etc.

Pack GUI widgets tighter on Mac
On Mac, all the GUI components have wide spacing (such as in the toolbars and the inspectors). Although this wide spacing is typical of Mac applications, ParaView has many more options than a typical application. All these GUI components are encroaching on the views and tend to make you have to scroll more through options. I thus advocate packing all the widgets tighter. Although it will look a bit less friendly, it will be more functional.

Allow frequently used filters to be added to the common filters toolbar
It would be great if you could support a customizable toolbar option, so that I can add frequently used filters to the existing common filters toolbar, rather than having to navigate to Filters->Recent

add X3Dom export to get a easy webgl rendere
ParaView has already a nice X3D exporter. Would be very easy and useful if somebody would create an additional X3Dom exporter by adding some static lines to the X3D exporter. This would allow to render the data with WebGL in a web-page without a plugin. Example: http://x3dom.org/x3dom/example/x3dom_paraviewExport.xhtml

Incorporate interactive deformation tools to manipulate meshs and contours
This could be very useful for those who want to interactively deform and visualize resulting meshes, similar to what is professionally available in many CAD packages. Simply click on a surface and extrude, or click on a mesh vertex and reposition

Add support to terrestrial laser scanning data
Laser scanning data are typically in xyzRGB format, where xyz are the coordinates and RGB are columns for the R, G, and B colours (values from 0...255 for each). The current support for only one colour field could be extended to define the colours through three different fields. In addition, laser scanning data, i.e. point clouds, may contain points up to billions, in which case long coordinates may hinder the calculation time needed for the visualisation. Therefore it is suggested to build an filter or process that only takes into account the changing parts of the coordinates.

Snapping
Add a snapping function for sources, i.e. when creating for example splines, snapping of control points to re-existing features on the pipeline would be useful.

Add filters to edit/move selected points or create labels at cell/point selections.
Sometimes it would be useful if I could move selected points by a vector.
Also, it would great if I could set label values at cells and points, which could be used for boundary conditions in e.g. FEM codes. The option could be to create an array with default values and set a given value at the selected nodes.4 votes -
limiting streamlines
Add limiting streamlines, since it is main and only tool to analyse real 3D separation flow

Add native support for reading in LAMMPS data.
It seems odd that despite Sandia's involvement in both LAMMPS and ParaView, ParaView can't read in native LAMMPS output files from simulations.

automatic rescaling option for the colormap
It will be great if paraview has an option to enable automatic rescaling for the color map. This is useful to compare the results easily with other software that enables the colormap to be rescaled automatically such as matlap.

Remove legend ticks !!!
I think the visibility of the ticks on the legend should be optional...

Glyphs: Scale only the arrow length instead of the whole glyph size
The glyph filter has the nice property which allows to scale the glyph. However, for all arrow glyphs, a better way of scaling would be to scale only the length of the arrow by a quantity instead of the whole arrow (shaft and tip thickness). This simply gives a much clearer overview if there are regions with big and small arrows in one domain.

Allow Image Resizing in Pipelines
Currently, if an Image source has a certain Extent, Paraview will pass that as UPDATE_EXTENT to all subsequent filters in the pipeline, even if a filter changes the whole extent. This prohibits for example implementing vtkImageConstantPad as a useful Paraview filter. For further info see http://markmail.org/message/sfnw7sgojytzw6y2 .
