tall SURFACE plots don't work? [message #30226]

Hello,

I need to make a 3-d SURFACE type plot, with the z axis twice the
length of the x and y axes (sort of skyscraper shaped). This ought to
be extremely simple??? -

Ordinary surface plot, with x,y,z axes the same length:

surface,dist(50),position=[.2,.2,.8,.8,.2,.8]

Surface plot with a 'squashed' z axis:

surface,dist(50),position=[.2,.2,.8,.8,.2,.4]

Surface plot with a 'stretched' z axis:

surface,dist(50),position=[.4,.4,.6,.6,.1,.9]

The 'squashed' z axis works fine, but IDL doesn't allow the last
example? - or maybe I haven't understood how POSITION keyword works in
3 dimensions???
Thanks for any help,

RW
