Name        : paraview
Product     : Fedora 18
Version     : 3.98.1
Release     : 3.fc18
URL         : http://www.paraview.org/
Summary     : Parallel visualization application
Description :
ParaView is an application designed with the need to visualize large data
sets in mind. The goals of the ParaView project include the following:

    * Develop an open-source, multi-platform visualization application.
    * Support distributed computation models to process large data sets.
    * Create an open, flexible, and intuitive user interface.
    * Develop an extensible architecture based on open standards.

ParaView runs on distributed and shared memory parallel as well as single
processor systems and has been successfully tested on Windows, Linux and
various Unix workstations and clusters. Under the hood, ParaView uses the
Visualization Toolkit as the data processing and rendering engine and has a
user interface written using a unique blend of Tcl/Tk and C++.

NOTE: The version in this package has NOT been compiled with MPI support.

Install the paraview-openmpi package to get a version compiled with openmpi.


Install the paraview-mpich2 package to get a version compiled with mpich2.

Update Information:

- Remove builddir path from VTKConfig.cmake (bug #917425)

- Remove only vtk conflicting binaries (bug #915116)
- Do not move python libraries

Update to 3.98.1, some of the major fixes are:

- Math-text in annotation: ParaView 3.98.0 introduced support to add annotations with math-text. This release extends on that capability to support math-text in several annotations including Text source, chart titles, scalar bars. Simply use $<math-text>$as the text to use. Anything within the $...$ symbols will be treated as math-text and rendered using matplotlib.
- Rendering translucent geometries in Parallel: For certain datasets, especially, those with a cell containing more than 512 points, rendering translucent geometries would cause freezes and segfaults in parallel. This issue has been addressed.
- This release also minimizes progress messages that had the potential to clog MPI channels especially for large runs.
