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.

Re: coordinates

Look in subs.py at the 'setBoxSize()' method. The parts you need are to get the ProjecionControl and get it's matrix (pc.getMatrix()) once at the start (before the user has done anything to the box). It comes back as a double[].
Then whenever you want to 'snap' it into position, you do the pc.setMatrix(originalMatrix) and the box will snap back into original alignment.

hi all,

i have a mesh 3D display with mathTYpe (mass,pi)->ratio
in order to pick my data accuratey from the display, i will have to turn
the 3D display to a 2D view(when Z==0), is there any way i can let Visad
do that, telling visad to position the display in 2D or assingning a key
board value to do that, so each time i want to pick a mass,pi value, i
can click on something, or hit a key to turn the diaplay in position Z=0, so
th at i can get the correct domain values picked.
hoping to hear from you soon

thanks
Isaac
