Well even if
it was the diamater of the Sphere that was required that would still only be
(1.8 * 2) which is still not enough as I have to multiply 1.8 by 50 to get the
intersection happening.
I think you
are right though..there is some kind of problem with the geometry utilitiy
units. I have emailed Sun but have not heard anything back yet.
Thanks,
Allistair

-----Original Message-----There is a similar problem with Box, it is because there is an error in the documentation (it is written that the box constructor wants the diameter of the box but in fact it the radius)

it is perhaps a similar problem with the sphere ?"Crossley, Allistair (A.)" wrote:
Dear All,I plot 2 spheres that are 2.35 VirtualWorld units (m) away from each other (by pythagoras). Their radii are 1.8. 1.8 is given to the Sphere object. Why then are my spheres so small and seemingly miles from each other when they should be intersecting. To get them to intersect I am having to multiply the 1.8 up to approx. 50.All the very bestAllistair^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Allistair D Crossley IT Consultant (Logica) 01277 252088 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ --
