Great!  Glad you like it.

Wow, never seen that kind of output!

How exactly are you making these snapshots?

That seems absurd, since tvtk.tools.mlab and anything else uses the

Can you clarify what exactly you did to get this behavior?  How did
you generate the snapshot, what platform, what version of VTK?
