Hi,

I'm programming a plugin for ParaView, whose purpose is to be a pre-processor 
for a finite element simulator. It is all based in selecting nodes or elements, 
and defining some regions - based on these - so that one can attribute boundary 
conditions to them. The main challenge seems to assure that the user will be 
able to select EVERY node or element he wants. So I'm treating all kind of 
selections, but I'm stucked in some problems and I have some questions:

1-Why the "New Range" button in the Selection Inspector is always deactivated ? 
Is this option already implemented in ParaView ? 

2-It would be pretty useful if the user could select all the nodes/cells in an 
coordinates interval. Is there anyway to do this ? Selection based on location 
only allows me to select one coordinate at a time, but I can't specify an 
interval. 

3-Is there anyway to "hide" selected cells/nodes ? I don't want to extract them 
with a filter (I would do this by just applying the Extract Selection filter) 
but just restrict the mesh in the screen to some subset. If I could do this, it 
would be easier (or even possible) to select some cells by picking. 

4-Finally, Is there anyway to control Frustum's shape or dimensions ? 

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,
Rafael March.
