export to vtk

[Vincent Ambert]

Hi Steve,

Can we export in vtk format a bdf file without a sequential numbering of nodes ?

Thanks

Kind regards,

Vincent

There is a vtk exporter in pyNastran/op2/export_to_vtk.  I think it supports non-sequential node ids.  It's not great as it's confusing to me on how to handle spoints, complex results and mixed element types (e.g., shell/bar/rods) as well as transients.  If ypu're familiar with how Paraview handles that sort of thing, I'd love to know.

I just use the pyNastran gui.  It's pretty solid and is just vtk under the hood.  It's no femap/patran, but it's decent.  You can call it with `pynastrangui` on the command line.
