Hi Sebastien, I’ve made it so that the plugin autoloads (and I’ve checked that the plugins are autoloading by selecting a reader plugin as autoload as well, and it does indeed allow me to open the associated filetype without me loading the plugin via the command line) and I still have the same result in Visualizer – the filter does not apply or appear in the pipeline.
Due to this, it must be how I am specifying the filter in the proxies file rather than the plugins not loading (I would think). What property in the plugin xml should I be using in my proxies json file?

That way, the plugin will load at start time.

I have no log output other than the regular output I get via starting the server 2. Running 5.4.1, compiled from source 3. It’s an .mha file, looking at the file info gives “Image (Uniform Rectilinear Grid)”. Note that I’m using the flying edges filter as an example since it’s a standard plugin and I can get it to apply to this dataset in ParaView desktop, so I don’t think it is the datatype. It also doesn’t work if I use a Wavelet like specified in this blog post: https://blog.kitware.com/accelerated-filters-in-paraview-5/ Louise From: Scott Wittenburg [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] Sent: 26 October 2017 16:53 To: Davies, Louise (STFC,RAL,SC) <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Cc: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Paraview] Specifying filters from plugins in ParaViewWeb Visualizer proxy file I see, I read your first email a bit too quickly. So you do see the filter appear in the web ui, but it just doesn't have any effect you can see. A few more questions then: 1) Is there any log output you can share? 2) what version of paraview are you running? 3) what filter or dataset type are you giving as input to the flying edges filter?

In your application server code, do you register the "ParaViewWebStartupPluginLoader" before the "ParaViewWebProxyManager"?

I’ve copied the defaultProxies.json<https://github.com/Kitware/ParaView/blob/master/Web/Python/defaultProxies.json> file from the ParaView source code and I don’t know how to get ParaView to recognise my plugin filter name. For example, I specify on the command line I want to load the default AcceleratedAlgorithms plugin. I want to expose the Flying Edges 3D filter in Visualizer. However, all of the names I can find related to the Flying Edges 3D filter in its .xml file<https://github.com/Kitware/ParaView/blob/master/Plugins/AcceleratedAlgorithms/AcceleratedAlgorithms.xml> (e.g. FlyingEdges3D, vtkFlyingEdges3D) do not allow me to use the filter. When I click on the item in the filters pane it does nothing. Am I understanding this incorrectly? Does it work differently for filters loaded from plugins than from default ParaView filters?
