Question about Filters

Use of the platform

Hello All
Hope all is well in your part of the world.

Salome came recommented from ElmerFEM. My aim with Salome is to create groups.

How can I select just the triangular faces that I have within the selection box?

  • Would I use Range of IDs? But what are the IDs within the selection?
    Or any other filter?

Thank you & Regards,
love the work you all are doing here,
All the best!

Hello,
You can use a filter call “Belong to Geom”:

  • Go to GEOM to create a box that will contain the part you want to select
  • Go back to SMESH:
    • Create Group, select your mesh
    • Select the elements type = Face
    • Group Type = Group on filter
    • click the “Set Filter” button and select the box created in GEOM

This is very helpful Fred.
Manual selection worked without use of filters, which was great.

Thanks
