Hi
 
I do have an unstructured grid (saved in vtkXML-format). This grid surrounds some kind of bodys (in my case wings and stuff like this). The surface of the bodys is discribed by surface-triangles and -quads. I only want to have a free look at the body´s surface, but I still need the surrounding grid for streamlines and so on. -> I want to have something like you can see on the Paraview-Screenshot-page - picture called "CFD analysis of the..." (http://www.paraview.org/Art/BigShot12.jpg)
My problem is the following:
When I do make an (Banded)SurfaceMap Paraview still presents the surface of the surrounding grid (although there are no surfacetriangles or -quads) and this surface is of course in the line of sight to my body. I only want to see the surfacetriangles and quad of my body!
 
Does anyone has an idea how to manage it?
 
Thanks
 
Steffen
