Hi Angel, Hi Paul,
Thank you a lot for your responses.
I’m afraid that changing the hermitelevel did not achieve the desired effect -
the problem is that one always can see the outlines of the individual spheres.
Maybe manually increasing the number of spheres drawn will make things a bit
better, although I didn’t find out if this is possible (increasing the number
of points for construction did not change anything there). I attached an
example (this is no arrow, I agree, but the concept should be the same).
Best
Kilian
