[Visualpython-users] Mesh questions

[Ryan H. <rf...@ma...>]

I have 2 questions regarding the use of the Mesh Class provided with the =
examples.  These are perhaps trivial but I can't seem to figure them =
out:

1) Once I've created a Mesh Object, is there a way to turn it on and =
off?  With most other visual objects there is an attribute "visible" =
which I can just set to 0 to turn the object off.

2) Is there a way to crop a mesh object to display only parts of it =
inside some specific domain?  For example, the surface I'm working with =
looks awkward when viewed inside a box and I'd like to take this surface =
and just see those parts of it that lie within a sphere of some radius.  =
This would be easy to do if I had some nice parameterization of the =
surface in spherical coordinates, but best I can tell there's no simple =
parameterization of this surface.

Thanks for any help you can offer,
