Hello,

How to see specfem results (mesh, fields) in paraview ? Is it possible 
?

I am new to specfem3d. I try to handle the code with the simple example 
meshfem3D/simple_model (I do not have CUBIT so I use xmeshfem3D). I have 
meshed and ran the code successfully.

I expected to find a hdf5/xmf files in the OUTPUT_FILES directory but 
there is no such file. I tried to use adios but, after installing adios, 
configure --with-adios stops with a fatal error as it does not find the 
adios lib. I tried to set CREATE_ABAQUS_FILES / CREATE_VTK_FILES to 
.true. in the Mesh_Par_file to get files I could visualize in paraview 
but it doesn't produce any new files in the OUTPUT_FILES directory 
(note: in the Par_file, I have set to .true. all these keywords : 
SAVE_MESH_FILES, SAVE_SEISMOGRAMS_DISPLACEMENT, 
SAVE_SEISMOGRAMS_VELOCITY, SAVE_SEISMOGRAMS_ACCELERATION).

I have a sr.vtk produced in the OUTPUT_FILES directory (with or without 
CREATE_VTK_FILES), but, no vtk files for mesh or fields (or no hdf5-xmf 
neither).

How can I visualize the simulation (mesh, fields) in paraview ?
