Clip/cut any dataset using using planes or boxes.

from pyvista import examplesClip with Plane¶
Clip any dataset by a user defined plane using the
:func:pyvista.DataSetFilters.clip filter
dataset = examples.download_bunny_coarse()
clipped = dataset.clip('y', invert=False)
p = pv.Plotter()
p.add_mesh(dataset, style='wireframe', color='blue', label='Input')
p.add_mesh(clipped, label='Clipped')

(0.02, 0.03, -0.02),
(-0.12, 0.93, -0.34)]

Clip with Bounds¶
Clip any dataset by a set of XYZ bounds using the
:func:pyvista.DataSetFilters.clip_box filter.
dataset = examples.download_office()
bounds = [2,4.5, 2,4.5, 1,3]
clipped = dataset.clip_box(bounds)
p = pv.Plotter()
p.add_mesh(dataset, style='wireframe', color='blue', label='Input')
p.add_mesh(clipped, label='Clipped')
p.add_legend()
p.show()Loading...
Clip with Rotated Box¶
Clip any dataset by an arbitrarily rotated solid box using the
:func:pyvista.DataSetFilters.clip_box filter.
mesh = examples.load_airplane()
# Use `pv.Box()` or `pv.Cube()` to create a region of interest
roi = pv.Cube(center=(0.9e3, 0.2e3, mesh.center[2]),
x_length=500, y_length=500, z_length=500)
roi.rotate_z(33)
p = pv.Plotter()
p.add_mesh(roi, opacity=0.75, color="red")
p.add_mesh(mesh, opacity=0.5)
p.show()Loading...
Run the box clipping algorithm
extracted = mesh.clip_box(roi, invert=False)
p = pv.Plotter(shape=(1,2))
p.add_mesh(roi, opacity=0.75, color="red")
p.add_mesh(mesh)
