Brief Description of the Documentation Issue or Improvement
It appears that DREAM.3D refers to voxel/image data typically as "cell" but there are instances where "element" is used in filters (e.g.,
Create Element array from Feature Array
,Create Feature Array from Element Array
), some cell feature data (e.g., "NumElements"), and various created and required arrays in filters (e.g., "Number of Elements" in filters such asFind Feature Sizes
, butRemove Minimum Size Features
then requires "Num Cells Array"). This is probably spillover from the use of DREAM.3D to generate input files for finite element analysis packages, but would it be worthwhile to standardize any reference to voxel/image data as only cell and not element?Best regards,
