DESCRIPTION

       Description: Viewer and exporter for Siconos mechanics-IO HDF5 files based on VTK.

OPTIONS

       --help

              display this message

       --version

              display version information

       --tmin= value

              set the time lower bound for visualization

       --tmax= value

              set the time upper bound for visualization

       --cf-scale= value
              (default : 1.0 )

              rescale  the  arrow  representing the contact forces by the value.  the normal cone
              and the contact points are also rescaled

       --no-cf

              do not display contact forces

       --imr

              immediate-mode-rendering, use less memory at the price of slower rendering

       --global-filter (default : off)

              With export mode, concatenates all blocks in a big vtkPolyData.  This option is for
              when  the number of objects is huge.  With vview, the display is done with only one
              vtk actor. Note that global-filter use a  vtkCompositeDataGeometryFilter  which  is
              slow.

       --no-depth-peeling (default : on)

              do not use vtk depth peeling

       --maximum-number-of-peels= value

              maximum number of peels when depth peeling is on

       --occlusion-ration= value

              occlusion-ration when depth peeling is on

       --normalcone-ratio = value
              (default : 1.0 )

              introduce  a  ratio  between  the  representation  of the contact forces arrows the
              normal cone and the contact points. useful when the contact forces are  small  with
              respect to the characteristic dimesion

       --advance= value or 'fps'

              automatically advance time during recording (default : don't advance)

       --fps= value

              frames per second of generated video (default 25)

       --camera=x,y,z

              initial position of the camera (default=above looking down)

       --lookat=x,y,z

              initial direction to look (default=center of bounding box)

       --up=x,y,z

              initial up direction of the camera (default=y-axis)

       --ortho=scale

              start in ortho mode with given parallel scale (default=perspective)

       --visible=all

              all:  view  all  contactors  and  avatars avatars: view only avatar if an avatar is
              defined (for each object) contactors: ignore avatars, view  only  contactors  where
              avatars are contactors with collision_group=-1

       --with_edges

              add edges in the rendering (experimental for primitives)

       --with_fixed_color

              use fixed color defined in the config file
