<div dir="ltr">Do you have the Slice filter highlighted in the GUI when you save the data set? That's the proper way to just save out the results from that filter and not the others. Also, you can use the Pass Arrays filter to selectively choose which arrays you want to pass through the pipeline.<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Sep 26, 2016 at 9:11 AM, Zenker, Dr. Matthias <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Matthias.Zenker@erbe-med.com" target="_blank">Matthias.Zenker@erbe-med.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

saves all the data, including the initial potential values, which gives a huge file. Is there a way to just save the result of the calculator, or better, of the slice filter?<u></u><u></u></span></p>
