Example
Plot boundary 6 using yellow color:
model = mphopen('model_tutorial_llmatlab');
mphviewselection(model,'geom1',6,'boundary',...
'facecolorselected',[1 1 0],'facealpha',0.5)
Plot edges 1 to 8 using green color:
mphviewselection(model,'geom1',1:8,'edge',...
'edgecolorselected',[0 1 0])
Add an explicit selection for boundaries 7 to 12 and plot the selection in a figure:
model.selection.create('sel1','Explicit').geom(2).set(7:12);
mphviewselection(model,'sel1');
Add a selection to get the vertex indices with the box delimited with the coordinates [-1e-3 11e-3;-1e-3 11e-3;9e-3 11e-3] and plot both the selected entities and the selector:
box = model.selection.create('box1', 'Box');
box.set('entitydim', '0');
box.set('xmin', '-1e-3').set('xmax', '11e-3');
box.set('ymin', '-1e-3').set('ymax', '11e-3');
box.set('zmin', '10e-3').set('zmax', '11e-3');
mphviewselection(model,'box1','facemode','off');
