This user-contributed add-on is unsupported. Please use forums for questions and comments.

Compatible with: Tecplot 10, Focus, 360
Macro Language: none.
Known Limitations: Works only with 2D and 3D.
Please use the forums for questions and comments.

Instructions:

Download the add-on (or compile the source) and save it in $TEC360HOME/bin
Edit your tecplot.add file and append this line:
$!LoadAddOn "extprec"
Start Tecplot
The menu option will appear under Tools
In a 3D grid, the dialog looks like this:

Files: (right-click and save)

Windows DLL (pre-compiled): extprec.dll
Intel Mac (pre-compiled): libextprec.so
PPC Mac (pre-compiled): libextprec_ppc.so (rename this as libextprec)
Source: extprec.zip
Building is pretty straight forward, but it does use the adkutil library distributed with Tecplot, so be sure to link with that library!
Linux users: if you send me the compiled version, I'll post it here.
