volume mesh - generate bounding mesh of 3-D irregular float field

Name

	volume mesh - generate bounding mesh of 3-D irregular float field

Summary

	Name	volume mesh 
	Type	Mapper
	Inputs	field 3-D irregular float scalar 3-sapce
	Outputs	mesh - 	geom
	Parameters
	Name		Type	Default	Choices
	Min I		boolean	0	0	1
	Max I		boolean	0	0	1
	Min J		boolean	0	0	1
	Max J		boolean	0	0	1
	Min K		boolean	0	0	1
	Max K		boolean	0	0	1

Description

	The volume mesh module is similar to the volume bounds module.
	The difference is that it generates a mesh using a colormap
	for the desired faces of the irregular field instead of a
	wireframe. 
	This replaces up to six ortho_slice/field_to_mesh combinations. 
	By placing the crop module upstream, it is easy to control the 
	location of the slice planes. 

Inputs

	field 3-D 3-space scalar irregular

Parameters

	Min I, Max I, Min J, Max J, Min K, Max K
		Turn on/off the mesh generation for each of the
		corresponding computational planes.
	

Outputs

	volume mesh - geom
		Up to 6 colorized mesh surfaces, depending on the
		parameters toggled on.
