Slab. Use one or more serially to strip off one direction, then another, like, chop off the X-Z plane, then chop off the Y-Z plane to end up with a smaller interior 'cube'.

Hi,

I'm dealing with 3-D, cell (connection) -based data sets (see the
listing of the dx file below) and I'm trying to trim away cells within
DX. Rather than exclude cells based on their data values (using the
include module), I would like to exclude them based on their x,y,z
coordinates or, better yet, by their i,j,k coordinates within the
array. In other words, I'd like to strip away xy layers, zx layers,
etc., to see inside the volume. I'm using ShowBoundary --> FaceNormals
--> Color to visualize the cells.

Any thoughts on how to approach this?

Thanks,
Karl
