I think you can try to use the IDLgrContour object.You can set the
vertex data to keyword "GEOMZ",and set the connectivity of the vertex
to the keyword "Polygon".But you need to make sure the connectivity of
your vertex are all right .Because the key of the right display for
the result is the proper connectivity to suit the data.So,if you have
computed the one and only connectivity of your data,or you have
already got a certain connectivity,you can obtained what you want with
that object.
By the way,to compute the connectivity of the vertex data is
difficult.Make sure you have already knowing some geometry
algorithm,unless that you may find that is really diffifult thing to
put the three dimension coordinates data on a contour.
