      hello,

      can someone give me an explanation of the grain boundary scale, the value 1, 0.9, 0.8... up to 0 what they represent? the colors red and blue what they represent in reality? and why i only get 1 or 0 in paraview results. Does the blue color represent the void or a grain boundary and the red confides the presence of grain boundary, and the other colors green and yellow that represent?

      Please refer to Additive Print and Science User's Guide available online.

      The purpose of the grain boundaries map is to see only the boundaries of the grains, similar to grain scale images seen in optical microscopy. Internally, this two-color effect is achieved by setting a grain boundary flag to 1 and the interior to 0.

      thank you for your answer, i see the Additive Print and Science User's Guide available online but i did not find informations explaining grain boundary, so please can you clarify more the diference between colors in grain boundary scale, color yellow or green what they mean excatly? If i understand the blue color represent the grain ?
