ParaView is a rather complicated 3d scientific visualization software. It's difficult for beginners to understand the basics from a book.
I suggest adding some basic short video tutorials to help people understand the key components of the software and include more examples (maybe the most common questions from the support forum).

Enable customization of the 2d Gliph with a custom user's image

Enable exporting the pipeline result to Fbx file with the color,filters and legend.

Import georeferenced image as a flat surface in 3D or texture

I find very annoying and tedious to change fonts one by one in many different places when the same font is wanted everywhere.

For example, while producing two line charts where I didn't want to use the standard fonts I had to change the font manually 10 times (2x legend, left axis label, left axis, bottom axis label, bottom axis).

Would be thus a very nice feature to set the fonts once for all everywhere if needed.

I've created several custom plugins for Paraview, along with some python macros that chain some of the filter commands together to make the user experience more friendly and efficient. It would be nice if you could enable a macro(s) to be automatically loaded into Paraview along with a plugin.

With tons of colormaps imported into ParaView, the Preset editor looks very crowded and less manageable. There is just a "default" preset group option to select favorite colormaps. Would be great to add more groups so that colormap presets can be categorized more easily.

The existing "Data Transform" option for the global "Axes Grid" allows for the scaling and transformation of the extents used to generate the grid. This option currently doesn't exist for the "Data Axes Grid", used to plot grids for individual sources. It would be very useful to have the same transform options available here for situations in which multiple grids are needed within the same figure.

I'm using DYNA3D from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and the code used mili format.

I will like to know if there is a way to add this format on paraview.

Thanks,

Otto

It is very hard, or almost impossible to edit the transfer function in small areas of the data range using the point UI window. What's missing is the possibility to zoom the point edit window so that just a portion of the data range is displayed, and existing points in that area can be edited more easily. When in zoom mode, the ability to pan that sub-view through the data range would be great to have as well.

Extend ParaView's FileSeriesReaderProxy to step through files named by date & time rather than by integers in a filename.

This documentation explains how to use FileSeriesReaderProxy to animte over files named foo1.xyz, foo2.xyz, ... fooN.xyz.

However, this doesn't work with filesnamed by date and time (Year-Month-Day-Hour-Minute-Second):
foo1995-03-21T00-00-00.xyz
foo1995-03-21T01-00-00.xyz
...
foo1995-03-21T23-00-00.xyz
foo1995-03-22T00-00-00.xyz
...

Tick Lines' width and length, Annotations' position, Bar Position with GUI input, ...etc.

When you switch off a range of time steps, the temporal statistics no longer works. I have to manually alter the .xmf file so as to only average the time interval I want. Is there a way I can do this without the manual editing of the files? ie is there a way to pick a range of time intervals or not loading a range of time intervals.

All contours on ParaView are always shaded, but sometimes the shaded contours are not suitable for understanding the values indicated by colors. I hope the vivid, flat, non-photorealistic shading model like Fluent or other post processors are implemented.

I sometimes have very complicated keyframe lists (a few hundred Time-Value pairs). It would be very useful to be able to Save and Load these to some sort of simple text file that could be created/edited outside Paraview

I am trying to set a .jpeg image as my background before loading in VTK data. Does anyone know how to do this?
