It looks like this feature was introduced in ParaView 4.4. I don't see it in 
4.3.

Hmm. I cannot find that property either by searching or by visual inspection. 
Perhaps its only in a newer version of Paraview? I am using 4.3.1

Rao,

I think you were asking how to get the file ID representing the processor 
holding the piece in the simulation whereas Andy's instructions tell you the 
process ID that the parts got loaded into the visualization.

To get the file ID, go to the properties panel for the Exodus reader and find 
the property labeled "Generate File Id Array." (The easiest way to find it is 
to type "generate" in the search bar at the top of the properties panel.) Turn 
on that checkbox and ParaView will generate a field named "FileId". Just color 
by that field and you are good to go.

HI Rao,

The Process Id Scalars creates a field that shows the current partitioning of 
the grid for pvserver. That may be what you're looking for. If you're looking 
for the grid partitioning that was used for the simulation, this information 
would need to be communicated in the ExodusII file itself. Depending on how 
things are written out, there should be a block ID available though that you 
give you this information for certain simulation outputs.

Please let me know if this isn't what you're looking for and we can try and see 
how to get it.

Best,
Andy

Hi

I tried looking for this in the archives but did not find anything relevant.

After importing a distributed mesh from the Exodus II/Nemesis I format
into paraview, how can I ask it to color the elements based on the
file/processor ID that they were read in from?

Thanks
Rao
