Find Surface Features

Group (Subgroup)

Generic (Spatial)

Description

This Filter determines whether a Feature touches an outer surface of the sample. This is accomplished by simply querying the Feature owners of the Cells that sit at either xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax, zmin or zmax. Any Feature that owns one of those Cells is said to touch an outer surface and all other Features are said to not touch an outer surface of the sample.

Note: If the structure/data is actually 2D, then the dimension that is planar is not considered and only the Features touching the edges are considered surface Features.
