Description[edit | edit source]
The FEM PostCreateFunctionCylinder function defines how a mesh is cut geometrically. It is used by
Function cut filter and
Region clip filter.
Usage[edit | edit source]
Create a cylinder function[edit | edit source]
- There are several ways to invoke the command:
- Press the
Cylinder button.
- Select the Results → Filter Functions →
Cylinder option from the menu.
- Press the
- The task panel is opened.
- Optionally set the values for the center and the radius of the section cylinder.
- Press the OK button to finish.
Edit a cylinder function[edit | edit source]
If the Cylinder object in the Tree View is hidden, select the Cylinder object in the 3D View and press Space to make it visible, like in this example:
Move the cylinder[edit | edit source]
- Click and drag the big white cuboid to move the cylinder along its normal vector.
- Click and drag the white grid.
Rotate and tilt the cylinder[edit | edit source]
- Click and drag a line that connects the small cubes with the big white cuboid to rotate and tilt the cylinder around its origin.
Scale the cylinder[edit | edit source]
- Click and drag one of the 6 small cubes to scale the cylinder.
Notes[edit | edit source]
- Existing functions can be used for different filters and even for different
result pipelines. It is nevertheless recommended to use a separate set of functions for each pipeline to keep track of the elements in the Tree View.
