How did you make your orb object? What widget application are you
viewing it in?

Hi Mark,
well I think I now know where the problem is... I adjusted the plot3d procedure
in the utilities directory (idl5.4) and changed it for my purpose, and run that
thing in idl6.0.
the original plot3d procedure has the same behaviour when using the 5.4-version
in 6.0; so i should not mix things together,i guess...
best regards,
-Ralf
