When I make a slice plot of a small portion of the model, the multiple slices are big and block the view of the small portion I'm trying to inspect with the slices. Is there a way to crop the slices to improve visibility? Or to make half-plane slices? Or any other easy method to trim away parts of the cut planes that block visibility of the region of interest?

Hi

you have basically two ways to reduce the amount of data:

a) add a subnode to the the plot: a filter node and then some condition of the type dom = 1 ... or X<0.1 or any combination

b) derive a copy of your data set and add a selection subnode to reduce the number of entities and plot that

Good luck

Thanks. Works. A minor nit. The filter condition results in very ragged edges where the condition trims the planes. Is there a way to fix this?
