As with many things in ParaView, there are lots of ways to do what you are asking, each with a slightly different behavior. I'll list through the ones I can think of.
* Like Utkarsh said, if your data is structured, you can use the "Extract Subset" filter. This will be the most efficient option, but the UI will be pretty crummy. * Also like Utkarsh said, you can use a pair of clip filters (instead of slice) to grab a reason. Use the Inside Out option on one of the clip filters so that the intersection of the half spaces become a slab. * You can change the Clip Type of the clip to a Box region. This will allow you clip a slab in one operation. The disadvantage is that the box clip operation can introduce more artifacts than a Plane clip. Also, you need to make sure the clip is Inside Out. * You should also try the Extract Cells By Region filter in place of the clip filter. Rather than cutting up cells, it will keep full cells that intersect a region you specify. Like Clip, Extract Cells By Region allows you to define cells by planes and boxes (although the inside/outside semantics are reversed). I suspect the Extract Cells By Region filter with a Box intersection will be the closest to what you want. -Ken On 11/26/13 10:37 AM, "Utkarsh Ayachit" <[email protected]> wrote: >If this is a structured dataset, try using "Extract Subset" filter. >Otherwise, you'll have to use a pair of Clip filters to get the >desired effect. > >Utkarsh > >On Tue, Nov 26, 2013 at 12:24 PM, Jesse Samluk <[email protected]> wrote: >> Utkarsh, >> >> Thanks for the response.
