General Module Function

The extract component module extracts a single data component from a field. Extract component can extract scalar data components or vector components. Scalar components will be output as scalar components and vector components will be output as vector components.

Module Input Ports

Extract component has only one input port which accepts any nodal data. The input may contain mesh data. If mesh data is include in the input then it will pass through extract component unaffected.

Module Output Ports

Extract component has two output ports. The first port (closest to the left) outputs a new nodal data component containing only the extracted nodal data component. If mesh data was included in the input, it will be contained in the output. The second port will output a renderable object if the data are faces or lines.

Module Control Panel

The control panel for extract component is shown in the figure above. The data component radio button list contains all of the data components piped into the input port. Only one component can be selected at a time and the default selection is the first (0th) data component. Any modules downstream of extract component will receive only the selected data component.
