Here is a small tip I want to share with you.
Sometime you need to compare two objects which are in the same location. This can be the case if you want to filter a dataset, and visualize the result of the operation in order to select the correct parameters.
To do so, I often use two clipping planes, each of them clipping one of the two objects I want to compare. Then I link the two clipping planes so that when I move one, it moves the other one. Thus, it becomes easy to compare the result of the filter.
You can see an example of use in a video (http://mc3dviz.com/public/avizoforumextras/tip_compareobjects20091021/video.wmv) and download the corresponding Avizo network (http://mc3dviz.com/public/avizoforumextras/tip_compareobjects20091021/CompareFilters.hx).
