Dear Ghansham, Thank you for your response. The reason why I turned off the texture mapping is because when we visualize real mass spectrometry data in MZmine, the texture mapping does not work. I am not sure if this is due to the nature of the data or if it also some sort of bug. Please check the attached screenshots from MZmine displaying a 1000x1000 resolution mass spectrometry data set. One screenshot is with texture mapping off, the other one with texture mapping on (but shows almost nothing).

Well I just wanted to know if the VisadTest.java file why you are disabling texture in the GraphicsModeControl by doing this: graphicsModeControl.setTextureEnable(false); Is there any special motive/reason behind that? I tried to display it as texture for the stated xMin, xMax values shown in the snapshots that are sent with the mail. The result is coming same as expected. You can just try at you end by doing: graphicsModeControl.setTextureEnable(true); Actually under the hood, if you disable texture, it uses geometry to render the data. But if you enable the texture it use Texture to display the data. regards Ghansham On 05/19/2012 12:03 PM, visad-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx wrote: > Send visad mailing list submissions to > visad@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > To subscribe or unsubscribe via the World Wide Web, visit > http://mailman.unidata.ucar.edu/mailman/listinfo/visad > or, via email, send a message with subject or body 'help' to > visad-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > You can reach the person managing the list at > visad-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > > When replying, please edit your Subject line so it is more specific > than "Re: Contents of visad digest..." > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
