Sorry to post this. I would prefer email but you requested a posting.
The information that you are looking for can be found in a document called
"PV-WAVE Command Language Guide to Advanced Rendering Library". In there
you will discover that you can use either volumetric ray-tracing or iso-
surface techniques to display your data. There is also a discussion on
the slice_vol utility which would also be useful to you.
I'm not trying to put you off with a read-the-manual type of answer. I
just want to avoid the gray area of technical answer vs marketing.
Feel free to give customer support a call, call me, or send a working
email address and we will be happy to provide more details.
Thanks,
james
