Hi, can the DEME output the particle data as VTK format?In the source code of Structs.h, it seems not support.

Hi,

Currently, it does not support outputting particles to VTK. I didn't have the bandwidth to implement that, and converting CSV to a geometric representing format like VTK requires you to make some assumptions like sphere rendering resolutions, I believe. If someone can help I'd be happy to have it implemented.

Right now you could write your script (or manually do it) that does TableToPoints and then make Glyph out of those points, in Paraview, to visualize the output.

Thank you,
Ruochun
