One simple mechanism along these lines is Include->ShowBoundary For include, you set a minimum and maximum value the "include". Depending on how your data are distributed in the volume, you could start by setting max to what you use for the isosurface value. If you use multiple isosurface values then could imply what a min and max should be. If the data have regular connections and most of the data would be "included", then turn off the cull option in Include. Otherwise, your data will be converted to an irregular form, which will take up more memory.

I've started using dx for the "more advanced" visualization tasks. I have 3D data in a file with x*y*z data entries. I can get an isosurface and 3 maptoplane to show planes. I would like to get an isosurface and I would like to cut a "brick" out of this surface. The visible planes cut out of the data-cloud should show the scalar values inside the data field. Could s.b point me to the direction to get this done? To show my goal I've created an picture of my wish below.
