:The '''Mesh → Scatter Points''' command in the ''Mesh'' menu is used to create a new scatter point set using the nodes in a mesh. A copy is made of each of the datasets associated with the mesh and the datasets are associated with the new scatter point set. | :The '''Mesh → Scatter Points''' command in the ''Mesh'' menu is used to create a new scatter point set using the nodes in a mesh.

:At this point, both datasets will be associated with the second mesh and the ''Data Calculator'' can be used to compute the difference between the two datasets. This same sequence of steps can be used to interpolate a dataset from a 3D grid to a 3D mesh, or vice versa. | :At this point, both datasets will be associated with the second mesh and the ''Data Calculator'' can be used to compute the difference between the two datasets.

==3D Mesh to 2D Mesh== | |||
:This command creates a 2D mesh from the upward facing elements of the 3D mesh. The materials of the 3D elements are preserved on the 2D mesh. The datasets associated with the 3D mesh are NOT transferred to the 2D mesh. | :This command creates a 2D mesh from the upward facing elements of the 3D mesh.
