With the current Import, there is no way to do this. You would have to
write your own custom Import. You could re-organize your data to be a
series of fields at which point you could then select and only Import
one at a time--but then you have the issue of how do you get the list
of members to select from without Importing the entire data set.

Hi,
I have a .dx file which contains several fields. There is a list of
the name of these components in the file. So I use extract to read in
this list, which is then passwd to a Selector to pick one out for
visualization:
FileSelector -> Import -> Extract (list) -> Selector (showing the
list) -> Mark (one component) -> IsoSurface -> autoColor -> Img
I noticed that when I fired up openDX it will read in ALL component
fields. The memory requirement for each of the component field is not
very big. But since I have 100 or so component fields, I am afraid DX
will exhaust the memory by reading all of them in.
So my question is, how can I read in just one component each time.
When I changed to another component (through the Selector), is it
possible to flush the previous component and read in the new one?
Thank you for reading this.
