Hello All,
I have a cylindrical detector for gamma rays and I want to
visualise two points on the diameter of the detector. The points are
in [x1,y1,z1] and [x2,y2,z2] format. I was planing to use IDL to plot
the 3d outline of the detector and then draw a line through the two
points. This is for visualisation only. I tried PlotS procedure but
that does not seem to be a 3d representation.
How do I go about doing it? Thanks for your help.

You will have to set the T3D keyword to make PLOTS use
the current 3D coordinate transformation.
Cheers,
