  • This command makes it possible to display and work with different parts of the block model using a filter expression. The filter will be used whenever the block model is used.

  • Existing filters can be removed by selecting this command but not specifying any filters. Then use the redraw-display command to display all the data.

  • A block model file must be open before filters may be applied. For more information on filtering data, click here.

 

Complex Filter Expressions and Scripting

You can emulate the effect of multiple-line filter expressions in scripts by joining expression parameters with "AND". For example, the following scripted command

Dm.parseCommand(“filter-model-file ‘AU > 0.5 AND’ ‘M4DDESC =2’ ‘’);

Represents the following expression filter:

AU > 0.5 AND
M4DDESC = 2

Note the third parameter (empty single quotes). This is used to indicate that no further expressions will be specified.
