Hi Soren, I'm also not that graphics specialist but currently do some visualization of volumetric data. I'm already using Martin's great set of codes and I think the goal until reaching Matlab compatibility for all iso* functions is near ;) Nevertheless, finally I'd like to see Martin's functions in the Octave core development tree, they are also part of Matlab's basic functions, even if they don't work with the Gnuplot backend (just 2D patches are supported with Gnuplot as it seems to me). This also would mean that, if people want to use these functions, they must take one of the new backends (fltk or JHandles), ie. introduce the new stuff that way?! If they don't get into Octave core right now then make them a new separate package because they have so little to do with the rest of the plot package, like I said, "visualization of volumetric data".
