Hi - Is there a way to reduce cube connections to the set of 6 quad connections on the faces of the cube element?
Motivation: I have a 3D data set on a regular grid (imported via the general array import format). There is a very thin (i.e. one gridpoint thick) surface of constant value within this 3D data that is irregularly shaped (like say, an approximation to a sphere - it'll look like it's made of Legos on a grid, or for those that remember, the game Qbert). The key is that I want to do something akin to an Isosurface or Rubbersheet on this surface, but it must adhere to the grid - the interpolation in the 3D element makes Isosurface not useful here. Ideally, I just see the surfaces of the grid cubes for which the data equals my value of interest. It seems to me that if I can reduce the cube connections to just the quads on the faces, I'm back in business. Or perhaps there's a better way of approaching the problem? Perhaps changing how I import the data so as to have this information at hand? Any insight would be appreciated.
