Description:

The rect command sets the options used when the rectline command is issued. By default, MeshTV will cycle through the line colors for the rect plot. If you want all plots to be the same color, you should set the line color on the command line.

The plot which displays in the visualization window is a plot of the chosen variable (set via the var option) as it varies along a line. The line is selected by specifying endpoints using the rectline command.

This command should only be issued if you have more than one visualization window created.

This command only works with rectilinear meshes.

Examples:

rect var=d,outwin=2

rect var=foo,outwin=4,lc=red
