Hi everyone, hope you can help.
I have a 3D structure that falls inside the boundaries of a cube. I am
trying to look at only a part of it by clipping away stuff around it. Say
the box has dimensions (x,y,z) = (300,300,300). I want to look at a portion
that is defined by the diagonal in the x-y plane, for z<=50.
So I tried to Collect the following:
ClipPlane with point=[150 150 50] and normal = [1 1 0]
ClipBox with point = [0 0 50] and normal = [0 0 1]
These two modules both have an input from ShowBoundary. The output from
Collect goes to Color (and then image).
If I use just ClipBox, I get the portion below z=50. If I use just
ClipPlane, I get the diagonal section that I want , but for all z. Not
surprisingly, when I Collect them, I get both. I tried using them in
series, but it gave me an error message: "Nested Clipped objects not
supported". How can I get just that small chunk in the corner?
Please help!
Thanks,
Carin
