Select cells based on fields

dmoroian · May 21, 2012, 05:31

Hello,
I'm trying to select a set of cells based on their velocity magnitude. In the old days there was an utility called fieldToCellSet, then cellSet, but now only setSet.
Could anyone clue me how to use it to select a set of cells based on their velocity magnitude?

Thanks,
Dragos

The answer seems to be:
setSet
>cellSet bubu new
>cellSet bubu add fieldToCell U 50 150
>quit
Now, there is a cell set with all the cells having the velocity magnitude in the range [50;150]
