Hello All,
  I have recently begun transitioning from AVS 5 to OpenDX for my space
physics visualization applications.  I've written several modules to
import our data strcutures into OpenDX and have been quite pleased with
the capabilities of this package.  
  I am have a problem with the AutoColor module.  I have created a
visual program to make color cutplanes with the value of the scalar
parameters in my dataset.  We like to look at visualization with
multiple cut planes, eg XY and XZ, so we need one color table for the
entire dataset.  In the current visual program the scalar parameter for
the entire data set is used as input to the AutoColor module and then
its passed several MapToPlane modules to create the need cutplanes with
the same color table.  The problem comes into play when I try and limit
color range by setting the min/max values in AutoColor.  Instead of the
data outside the range being plotted with the outofrange color value it
is simply removed from the graphic object.  Any ideas as to why this is
occuring a possible sugguestions for fixing are appericated.
  As a secondary peice of information, if I move the AutoColor
downstream of the MapToPlane module then the outofrange color value is
used to display the sections with values outside the specified min and
max.  Since the AutoColor documentation states that it will generate a
seperate color table for each member in a group using a collect module
to accumulate the planes and then coloring them will not generate the
same color table for each cut plane direction.

Take Care,
Mike
