Elmer Discussion Forum

Hi Shandilya here,

I have installed Elmer in my ubuntu 18.04 LTS but Paraview is not there in the elmer. So I have separately installed Paraview, now how can i connect paraview to the Elmer?

Please give any method. Pleae somebody help me with this.
Forgive me if I have written anything wrong.

You can open paraview and from paraview open the *.vtu created by Elmer.

If Elmer did not create one then you need a post file in your simulation section

Simulation
Post File = case.vtu
End

In ElmerGUI it just tries to start paraview by issuing the command paraview. If paraview is not in your path GUI can't start it.

Thank you kevinarden,

Could you please guide me how to add that paraview in GUI path please.

Would have to start with what operating system you are using, path is a system variable.

See chapter 4 in this documentation

I see in the title the OS is UBUNTU
