Class
    Foam::surfaceWriters::vtkWriter
 
Description
    A surfaceWriter for VTK legacy (.vtk) or XML (.vtp) format.
 
    The formatOptions for vtk:
    \table
        Property    | Description                           | Required | Default
        format      | ascii or binary format                | no  | binary
        legacy      | Legacy VTK output                     | no  | false
        precision   | Write precision in ascii         | no | same as IOstream
        scale       | Output geometry scaling               | no  | 1
        transform   | Output coordinate transform           | no  |
        fieldLevel  | Subtract field level before scaling   | no  | empty dict
        fieldScale  | Output field scaling                  | no  | empty dict
        normal      | Write face area-normal in output      | no  | false
    \endtable
 
    For example,
    \verbatim
    formatOptions
    {
        vtk
        {
            format      binary;
            legacy      false;
            precision   10;
            fieldLevel
            {
                p       1e5;    // Absolute -> gauge [Pa]
            }
            fieldScale
            {
                "p.*"   0.01;   // [Pa] -> [mbar]
            }
        }
    }
    \endverbatim
 
    \section Output file locations
 
    The \c rootdir normally corresponds to something like
    \c postProcessing/<name>
 
    \subsection Geometry and Fields
    \verbatim
    rootdir
    `-- timeName
        `-- surfaceName.{vtk,vtp}
    \endverbatim
