external_edges

The external_edges module produces a wireframe representation of of an unstructured cell data mesh. This is generally used to visualize the skeletal shape of the data domain while viewing output from other modules, such as plumes and surfaces, inside the unstructured mesh. external_edges produces a mesh of only the external edges which meet the edge angle criteria below for each cell set of a data set. Because each cell set's external faces are used there may be edges that are seemingly internal (vs. external). This is especially true when external edges is used subsequent to a plume module on 3D (volumetric) input.
