I'm just getting pretty frustrated... I'm using David's scatter_surface
procedure that does 3D scatter plot. I've modifed the colors and shape
of the plot directly, and works great when i call it manually from the
command prompt. But when i include the procedure inside another
procedure (to get the desired x, y, and z values) like calling a
function, the plot didn't show any data point. Could somebody point me
the right way to approach this?? thanks in advance.

You really gotta love object graphics, don't you!

I guess an orb, to be a, well, an orb, has to
have the data scaled into a unit cube. Otherwise,
it could look like a sausage or cigar or candy cane,
or whatever else you can imagine. Oh, well, one more
thing to fix when I get a chance.

Cheers,

David
