Question #695607 on Yade changed:
https://answers.launchpad.net/yade/+question/695607

    Status: Open => Answered

Jan Stránský proposed the following answer:
I am not sure it is possible with VTKRecorder, but it is possible with export.VTKExporter [3,4], something like
vtk.exportSpheres(useRef=True,what=dict(displ="b.state.displ()")) # syntax is different for older Yade versions
useRef ... saves state.refPos as particle position (instead of default state.pos)
what= ... saves displacement with VTK name "displ"

in Paraview, you can then use WarpByVector with vector=displ and scale=1
to place particles to their actual position and/or color them by displ
value (magnitude?)

cheers
Jan
