<div>Have you tried the contour filter? Based on your screenshots I would expect that to give you a variable width cylinder along the z axis showing the behavior everywhere at once. <br>

<div>Ok everybody I think I have a good grasp at where I am trying to get with this figure (reattached), and some additional ones. Sorry, but as a newbie, it takes some time to figure out where I'm trying to go :)
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So, everyone sees the slice, right? When I move up and down the z-axis with the slice, I see the field change especially towards the center. I also played with "box" in the slice type option.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I was wondering the best way to show the field change as I slide the slice. Would clip still show it? Also, is there a way to show you my Paraview screen? Let me know so I can show you exactly what's going on.</div>

<blockquote type="cite">As with many things in ParaView, there are lots of ways to do what you are<br>
asking, each with a slightly different behavior. I'll list through the<br>
ones I can think of.<br>
<br>
* Like Utkarsh said, if your data is structured, you can use the "Extract<br>
Subset" filter. This will be the most efficient option, but the UI will be<br>
pretty crummy.<br>
<br>
* Also like Utkarsh said, you can use a pair of clip filters (instead of<br>
slice) to grab a reason. Use the Inside Out option on one of the clip<br>
filters so that the intersection of the half spaces become a slab.<br>
<br>
* You can change the Clip Type of the clip to a Box region. This will<br>
allow you clip a slab in one operation. The disadvantage is that the box<br>
clip operation can introduce more artifacts than a Plane clip. Also, you<br>
need to make sure the clip is Inside Out.<br>
<br>
* You should also try the Extract Cells By Region filter in place of the<br>
clip filter. Rather than cutting up cells, it will keep full cells that<br>
intersect a region you specify. Like Clip, Extract Cells By Region allows<br>
you to define cells by planes and boxes (although the inside/outside<br>
semantics are reversed). I suspect the Extract Cells By Region filter with<br>
a Box intersection will be the closest to what you want.<br>

Thanks for the response. By volumetric slice - see how the slice is<br>
now?<br>
Isn't there a way to make it thicker and move it up and down to show the<br>
changes? What about the "clip" option?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

I am not sure what you mean by volumetric slice. Does it mean multiple<br>
slices parallel to the one slice you have in your image? If so, the<br>
"Slice"<br>
filter does allow specifying additional offsets to slice. Switch the<br>
Properties panel to show advanced properties<br>
(<a href="http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/491">http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/491</a>) or search for "offset" in<br>
the<br>
"search box" at the top of the Properties panel. Now you can add offsets<br>
around the default slice.<br>

Greetings,<br>
<br>
And if more information is needed, please let me know. We're<br>
looking to<br>
see if Paraview can create a volumetric slice with transparency of the<br>
following image created in Paraview.<br>
<br>
I saved the state file if needed, and have the data too, but since<br>
I'm a<br>
newbie here, I'm not too sure what to do.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
