CSV Files in Paraview

I've been following Paraview's documentation for loading in csv files. I have one loaded in and ready to use, but i'm not entirely happy with the processes they've suggested. As both apply to dots and apply to grid points are both pretty ugly...

I'm using the dataset 'Sally', which as my lecturer suggested is apparently pretty well known (looks like a tornado or something). The dot layout of the data make it look like a tornado, but all the dots are set to one colour... How can i map different colours to different layers of the data?

Thank you

Here is how to Open your csv file in ParaView and load it as a Geometry.

  • File -> Open -> Select your csv file -> Apply
  • Filters -> Tables To Points -> Set X, Y and Z -> Apply

You know have a polydata with a lot of points. If you want to have coloring based on a parameters, you have to compute some data on the dataset, as your csv file does not seem to contain any.

For example :

  • Filters -> Elevation -> Z axis -> Apply

Can be what your are looking for.
