  • This command makes it possible to selectively display and work with different wireframe triangles from the wireframes using a filter expression. The expression must be based on attributes which are associated with the wireframe triangles such as TRIANGLE, GROUP, SURFACE, LINK, , etc.

  • Existing filters can be removed by selecting this command but not specifying any filters. After filters have been defined use the redraw-display command to display the selected data.

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-strings ‘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.
