View Cut Question

(OP)
I have a cylinder which due to the simulation has unwanted edge effects at both ends. I would like to be able to cut the left AND right side off so that only the middle portion remains. The spherical cut method is not an option. Anyone know how to accomplish this?

RE: View Cut Question

Use the display group tool and box select the elements that you want.  I assume that you have a very nice quad mesh on this part so the cut should be clean.  I hope this helps.
