Description Nico Schlömer 2009-07-26 11:46:26 UTC 
Hi,

after a successful compilation of ParaView 3.6.1, one issue struck me: I can't open any of my (legacy) VTK files anymore, which used to work alright with 3.4. I guess I'll append one of those here.

Do they work for you?

Cheers,
Nico

Reproducible: Always

Hi Nico,

Legacy vtk files should in principle work and are
enabled in the build (there should be an option
legacy VTK or sth like that in the menu). I won't
be able to test your file until I am back at my
main dev machine sometime next week.

In any case, if paraview-3.6.1 can't open a file
it is supposed to open then this looks like
an upstream bug. Hence, please file a bug with upstream
and keep us in the loop.

Thanks,
Markus

I'm so sorry: Took the wrong input file, and of course it wouldn't display anything. Works okay for sane VTK files. :)

Marking as INVALID.
