Due to the current gap in continued funding from the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF), the NSF Unidata Program Center has temporarily paused most operations. See NSF Unidata Pause in Most Operations for details.

[idvusers] setting viewpoint in the bundle file

The IDV can set the point of view with the viewpoint control which lets the user set azimuth from north and angle down from overhead. 

In the bundle file the viewpoint is expressed in this 16 value array:

  <property name="DisplayMatrix">
           <parray class="double" length="16">
0.3535530052376653,-0.35355377594846216,0.0,
0.0,0.17677644300347337,0.17677605764904494,
0.1732052260833264,0.0,-0.30618680847883556,
-0.30618614102314645,0.09999974828680219,0.0,
0.0,0.0,0.0,
1.0
            </parray>
     </property>


Does anyone have code to convert the 2 values (azimuth from north and angle 
down from overhead) into the array?
The idea is to make a general puspose bundle file which can be controlled and revised automatically when making display image files using the IDV in non-interactive or offscreen mode.
