solid_contour_set

This is a deprecated module whose function has been superceded by contour_data

General Module Function

The solid_contour_set module has identical functionality to Solid_3D and Solid_3D_Set This module is used for applying solid contours with user defined contour levels to objects such as slice planes, plume_volumes, geologic surfaces, etc.

Module Input Ports

solid_contour_set has two input ports.

The first (blue-black) port accepts unstructured mesh and nodal data.

The second port (blue-red-blue-beige) is found on only a few modules in EVS/MVS. The modules with this port are Solid_3D_set, solid_contour_set, isolines, Datamap_Editor, and Color_Legend.

These modules pass data corresponding to one or more subsetting levels (or solid contour levels). When this data is passed to solid_contour_set, it is used to set the precise break points where contours will occur. When this data is passed from solid_contour_set to other modules, the levels set in solid_contour_set will be reflected in those modules.

Module Output Ports

solid_contour_set has two output ports. The first output port (closest to the left) outputs a new unstructured mesh which contains cells representing the external faces portion of solid_contour_set. Nodal data sent to this output port consists of the nodal data of the map component in the plume_volume portion of the subnetwork. This blue output is used to input to isolines to place isolines on the portions of the plume that intersected the exterior surfaces of the input domain. The second port outputs a rendered geometry directly to the Viewer.
