[vtk-developers] interface elements

[Andreas Buykx]

Our finite-element application has 'interface elements' which are used to model discontinuities between 'conventional' elements. We would like to be able to visualize these as transparent elements with one or more lines connecting the sides of the interface element. For this we need to filter such elements and process them in a proper way. What would the preferred way of discriminating between interface and conventional elements be? Should we add a boolean attribute to each cell specifying whether it is an interface element?

Thanks,
