NAME
OrthoSlice2D
DESCRIPTION
This module extracts a 1-D lattice from any 2-D lattice at any grid point
along one of its axes. The same data and coordinate types used for the
input lattice are used for the output lattice. If the coordinate type is
curvilinear then the number of output coordinate variables can be
directly specified. This is useful for some modules such as NAGGraph
which demand 1 coordinate variable on a 1-D lattice, while other
modules such as Particles2 can handle up to 3 coordinate variables on
a 1-D lattice. If the input lattice is not 2-D then no slicing will be done;
it will just flow through to the output lattice.
INPUTS
Input -- Lattice
This is the 2-D input lattice from which to slice a 1-D section.
WIDGETS
Axis -- Radio Box
This determines which axis to slice along (I or J). The selected axis will
be left out of the resulting lattice.
Slice Number -- Slider
This is the grid point at which to slice along the selected axis.
# Curvilinear Vars. -- Option Menu
This determines how many coordinate variables should be sent out for
a curvilinear lattice.
OUTPUTS
Output -- Lattice
This is the sliced lattice reduced to the appropriate single axis if the
input lattice is 2-D. Otherwise, it's a duplicate of the input lattice.
KNOWN PROBLEMS
There are no known bugs.
