[Paraview] How to slice a 3D vector field?

[Moreland, Kenneth]

A simpler solution might be to change the seed type from Point Source to Line Source.  By default, the line should be embedded in the slice you created.

Hi,
You could try using the custom source streamtracer and use the plane as the input. That will release streamlines form all the points in the plane.
If this is not what you want you can calculate points on your plane using the normal vector coordinates and the center coordinates...

Hello,
I would like to slice a 3D dataset with vector data attached to points but I would like to keep only the tangential part of the vectors, so as to compute streamlines lying on the plane then. If I use the slice tool, I can extract a place but with 3D vectors, which means that if I compute streamlines I get nothing because the is-in-domain test make the integration stooping immediatly (at least I suppose this is the reason). So I need to create a 2D vector field from a 3D one. Any advice?
