HighlightMesh

HighlightMesh[mr,{cellspec1,cellspec2,…}]

highlights the cells specified by cellspeci in the mesh region mr.

HighlightMesh[mr,{…,wj[cellspecj],…}]

highlights using the symbolic wrappers wj.

Details and Options

  • The cell specification follows the standard form {dim,indexes} and is specifically described in the reference pages for MeshRegion and BoundaryMeshRegion.
  • HighlightMesh[mr,{ms1,ms2,…}] returns a new mesh region with the cells specified by msi highlighted.
  • The following wrappers can be used:
  • Labeled[cell,…]display the element with labeling
    Style[cell,spec]show the element using the specified styles
  • HighlightMesh takes the same options as MeshRegion and BoundaryMeshRegion.
  • Styles and other specifications for cells are taken to apply to the highlighted elements celli.
