Steve,

You obviously didn't see my later reply, in which I offered
an example of how this could be done in object graphics. :-)

See this program on my anonymous ftp site:

ftp://www.dfanning.com/pub/dfanning/outgoing/idl_course/poly _surface.pro

Cheers,

David

P.S. I didn't make the draw widget 800 by 400 in this
program, but I just tried it, and as I expected, it
still looks pretty good. More than blobs, anyway. :-)
