Re: [firedrake] Runtime visualization
Hi Justin, That's a very well timed question. Happily Fangyi (Thomas) Zhou is with us as a summer student working on this precise problem. He's started out by implementing some functionality for 1 and 2 dimensions using matplotlib. If you're feeling brave you can try the plotting and plotting-1d branches but they will hopefully land in master in the next week or so. Meanwhile I'm at WCCM and was in a visualisation session this morning. It appears that what both PyFR and GMSH are now doing is using catalyst, which is a runtime paraview interface (http://www.paraview.org/in-situ/). I think it would be really cool if Thomas has a look at that next (although I haven't yet had a chance to discuss that with him since we're not in the same location or timezone right now).

Hi all,
One of the beautiful things about FEniCS is its ability to produce runtime plots of the solution. Is there (or will there be) a way to do this in Firedrake? It is a little bit cumbersome to dump the solution into a pvd file and (re)open it in paraview/VisIt each time you want to tweak something.
Thanks, Justin
