shrink cells

The shrink cells module produces a mesh containing disjoint cells which can be optionally shrunk relative to their geometric centers. It creates duplicate nodes for all cells that share the same node, making them disjoint. If the shrink cells toggle is set, the module computes new coordinates for the nodes based on the specified shrink factor (which specifies the scale relative to the geometric centers of each cell). The shrink factor can vary from 0 to 1. A value of 0 produces non-shrunk cells; 1 produces completely collapsed cells (points). This module is useful for separate viewing of cells comprising a mesh.
