Hello,

I'm trying to use a countour of density/species to outline my interface. I'd like to use this contour, which stretches and at one point inverts, to find for me the max and min coordinate values.

I tried to use isolines of species for this but when the interface inverts they die.

At the moments I can plot the contours, but can't do any operations on them. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks so much,

You can try to use IsoSurfaces. If the parent part is a 2D part, then the created IsoSurface will be 1D, at a constant single value. You can then query the min (or max) coordinate of the IsoSurface. In principle, the IsoSurface is effectively a single Contour. The benefit is that the IsoSurface is a proper part, with coordinates.
