Hi Susanna,
This is a common misunderstanding that should have a bold FAQ entry. You
can use a GriddedSet as long as it has a regular topology (i.e. it can
be warped with irregular grid spacing).
Cheers,
Doug

I have a set of values generated by a surface fitting program that I
want to view as a 3-d surface. The MathType is ((x,y)-> z). I'm using an
irregular set for the domain created with an array of floats from the
data generated by the surface fitter. I can plot the data as points, but
I can't figure out how to get VisAD to connect the points and create a
surface. I've tried looking at the examples, but none of them use
irregular sets. Is it not possible to plot a surface from an irregular
set? I'm pretty sure I have to use an irregular set because the points
from the surface fitter aren't guaranteed to be at regular intervals.
Thanks for the help,
Susanna Ricco
