Is there an easy way to display data given in spherical coordinates (longitude, latitude, z) rather than in rectangular coordinates (x,y,z) using SHADE_VOLUME & POLYSHADE? A related question is: does anyone know who is the author of the image displayed under Earth Science in idldemo -- its the globe with 1/4th removed so that one can see the inside and the core? Any ideas how the image was produced? Thanks!
