I admit that's pretty cool. But what does a "radius
of one" mean in this context? For example, here are
orb objects with a radius of 5, but clearly this
radius has nothing whatsoever to do with the axes:

p=plot3d(xyz[0,*],xyz[1,*],xyz[2,*], $
sym_object=orb(radius=5),/ undocumented,$
linestyle='none')

Cheers,

David
