Draped Contours? [message #68998] Wed, 09 December 2009 14:05

I was playing with iSurface (shocking, I know), and found very useful
the ability to "drape" contours interactively on top of the surface,
similar to raised relief maps with contour lines. It occurs to me I
have no idea how to do this; probably some object graphics thing.
Does anyone have a short example of forming such a draped contour? I
did consider using the SHADES keyword for shade_surf to color various
levels black, but I prefer lighting-based shading, and (ideally)
vector contours for output.
