Plot Selection

In v4.0 I believe there is a technique for visualizing the solution on specific domains by defining a selection first e.g. Definitions > Selection However, I do not recall the steps to only show the solution for that selection.

Basically, I want to hide all domains while visualizing the solution only on the domain defined in the selection.

Can anyone help with this?

Hi

you have diferent ways to "hide" objects in V4:

in the "Definition View" you can add a new "View", and add as subnode "Hide lists of Objects (geometry = volumes, faces, lines or points) or entities ("analysed geometry = domains, boundaries, edges, points)

Then you can select the view for the plot.

But mostly in the postprocessing you can duplicate the "Data Set" and add selections to it, or just create subsets such as cut faces, lines etc of a "Data Set" and then plot or calculate based on this sub-"Data set"

These are different approaches, by the way you can also select different "Views" in the Results section but not with hiding entities just with axis information

Good luck

Hi Ivar,

How do I hide a domain in 4.2? I have a sphere of air surrounding my model, and I want a volume plot without it being there. it blocks my view on the rest of the model!

Thanks,
Shoval

Hi

try in the "Definitions" to make a new "View", then add a sub-node "Hide Entity" and select the sphere, then update your view (eye icon)

You might need to force your plots to use this view, check in the main plot nodes, normally there is an "Auto" that might be changed
