This tutorial demonstrates how to cut an octree mesh below (or above) X/Y/Z planes.
 
 
Octree cut below two X and Z planes by T. Renaud.
By default, an octree has the same size in all directions (dfar parameter).
To cut an octree with respect to X/Y/Z planes, we use
the functions T.symetrize and P.selectCells. T.symetrize is used to ensure that an octree matching boundary is located on the X/Y/Z plane. Then, P.selectCells is used to choose the cells from one or other side of the X/Y/Z plane.
