plot a 2D plane of a 3D solution

Asked by Houdong Hu

When we have a 3D solution u, plot(u) is hard to see what happened in the center of the cubic.

Could I just plot a 2D surface of u? then I could see what happened in the center.

You can save to "pvd" and have a look at it in Paraview. There you can take
