'Data source' in post-processing doesn't respect 'Visibility -> Force Component'
I noticed that setting the option
Post processing options -> Aspect -> Data Source
to a different view only uses the default Visibility
. E.g. for a six component field (a stress tensor), the Von Mises scalar is used as colour.
This is a often utilized as a way of showing stresses on a deformed structure.
When looking at the undeformed stress field view, the tab
Post processing options -> Visibility -> Force Scalar
allows one to select components of the tensor (e.g. only normal stress sigma_x). The deformed view doesn't allow this selection, as far as I can tell.
It would be best if the visibility settings of the tensor field are respected also in the 'deformed view'. Furthermore, the settings in View[i].CustomMax
and View[i].CustomMin
should be respected.
Steps to reproduce: As an example, I'm attaching two files. One holds the deformation information and the other one the stress tensor

- Set
View[0] -> Visibility -> Force Scalar
andView[0] - > General -> Range mode
to Custom. Hit theMin
,Max
button. - remember how the picture changed from Von Mises to sigma_x
- turn off the visibility of
View[0]
- Set
View[1] -> Aspect -> Data Source
toView[0]
(the Von Mises data ofView[0]
is shown).
Changes in View[0] -> Visibility -> Force Component
and changes in View[0].CustomMin/Max
are not affecting the current View[1]
.
I think this would be the expected behaviour. Thanks for your attention.
