Hello,
Context: Only 4 types of slice available in paraview
- Plane
- Box
- Sphere

Request: Add new types of slice:
- Cone
- Frustum

These cuts are of interest for turbomachinery type applications. The problems are often axially symmetrical. Having access to these new sections would facilitate the postprocessing and visualization.
For information, these types are available with ensight. See ensight manual
