Filter

Use Filtering to visualize where a result quantity occurs within a specified range.

Some examples where Filtering is very useful include:

Filtering is conceptually similar to Iso Surfaces, with two important differences:

  1. Instead of a surface that is based on a single results value, Filtering shows a volume that is based on a range of results values.
  2. In addition to the Filter volume, the entire model is displayed. This makes it easier to identify the location of the region relative to the entire design.

While Filtering is enabled, the primary display controls (on the View toolbar) affect the filter volume.
