I’m in the middle of building an animation. How do I save it, shut down my computer and reload it later? Is it ‘Save Data’?
Hi @shinisomara!
I would say simply save your progress and reopen it later on. Just a question though: Are you speaking about Paraview offline (meaning that you have installed Paraview on your machine) or are you meaning the integrated Paraview post-processing tool on our platform? If so, you can saye the state in the post-processing so that you do not have to set up everything again.
Is that answering your question?
Cheers,

Ok, Save State. Thank you!
I’m using a downloaded version of Paraview!
Two questions:
-
Where can I set (even lock) a global co-ordinate system. I want to set the origin as being in the centre of the object, so that I can set all my clips/slices etc to having that origin. How do I do this?
-
Does anyone have a list of mousepad controls on a MacBook Air. I don’t have enough ports on this machine, to use a USB connected mouse. {I suppose I could purchase a bluetooth connected mouse, although I’m trying to keep my hardware light)…
Thanks,
S
Hi @shinisomara!
Tagging @1318980 in that one as I am not using Paraview that often and I am sure he knows how to handle the issue with the hardware. I would get a bluetooth mouse. I know that problem with the hardware having a Pro version… 
And a mouse is not that costly or tremendously big to carry it. 
Best,
Jousef
Hi @shinisomara and @jousefm,
The 'select centre of rotation button is this one on the far right with the rotation arrow and cursor:
The mouse controls are in properties> mouse controls, this is good to see all mouse pad controls. I set the pan to be right click on the MacBook pro and zoom middle button. Find that more natural. I also don’t use a mouse, love the track pad.
Hope this helps,
Darren
