In order to reproduce your visualisations, you may want to create a Python trace. A Python trace allows you to record everything you do in the Paraview interface and store it as a Python script that you can run in the future. To do this, you will need to go to Tools → Start Trace

This will bring up the Trace Options box which you can click OK on:

Now we can run our workflow:

To reproduce the workflow in the image above, try running the following in the Python Shell:

>>> wavelet = Wavelet()
>>> vectors = RandomVectors()
>>> Show(vectors)
>>> ResetCamera()
>>> tracer = StreamTracer()
>>> Show(tracer)

Once we are happy with our workflow, click on Tools → Stop Trace

This will generate a Python Script which you can save:

Next let's reset our session and try to run the Python script we just created. To run this script, go to the Python Shell and click the "Run Script" button and select the Python script file you saved earlier:

Hopefully you can reproduce the image you created earlier:
