In the next line, select Cell in the first combo box, contains in the next combo box, and the x, y, z location in the following text boxes.

Dear all,

I'd like  to know how to probe cell index number of  unstructured grids.
For example, after loading unstructured data (typically Hexa or Tetra),
I hope to know the cell index like below:
1) set x, y, and z
2) automatically probe the index number of the cell that includes the
above (x,y,z) point

Sincerely yours,
Waku
