Flow integration outside of the Box #3066

Open sgpearse opened 2 years ago

sgpearse commented 2 years ago

Does the Flow Renderer integrate trajectories outside of a given Box?

I believe it does so with Streamlines. I'm not sure about Pathlines.

If we do integrate outside of the Box region, performance would be greatly improved by constraining it to the relevant data.

@shaomeng - Is this the case, and is it worth limiting integration to the Renderer Region (Box) for performance?

Hi @sgpearse , the flow line code currently does not check the box, if I remember correctly.

I wonder how often a user selects a smaller box in flow line integration? I feel that it's not a very common use case.
