PartSelect

PartSelect is able to manage sets to cull parts of the geometry or data based on the part attribute.

PartSelect has been tested on SGI platforms.

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
numbers	String	String of integer numbers separated by a `/' character. Each number is then interpreted as the identifier of an entity to be removed.

Input Ports

Name	Type	Description
requiredinport_1	StructuredGrid Float Vec3 UnstructuredGrid Float Vec3 Geometry Polygons Lines Points TriangleStrips IntArr	Input entities from which we select some parts.
optionalinport_2	see inport_1	see inport_1
optionalinport_3	see inport_1	see inport_1
optionalinport_4	see inport_1	see inport_1

Output Ports

Name	Type	Description
outputoutport_1	StructuredGrid Float Vec3 UnstructuredGrid Float Vec3 Geometry Polygons Lines Points TriangleStrips IntArr	Output entities with the remaining parts.
dependoutport_2	see outport_1	see outport_1

Examples

Figure: covise/net/examples/PartSelect.net

In this map we handle a time-varying, hierarchically structured geometry. The complete renderer output without the action of PartSelect is shown in the first figure.

Figure: Complete output

If we select parts 3 and 8 (steering wheel and head) for suppression,the resulting renderer output is shown in the second figure.
