Ok, here's a rough outline of what I'm doing:

take spherical coordinates and assign them a value

mangle the spherical coordinates to their cartesian coordinates

output into constant r rows, and chunks of constant phi (0->2*pi), and then vary theta (0->pi)

I have no clue where to start (my attention span is making it quite difficult to make it through any reasonable amount of the user guide, and gain anything from it), but I did take a look at the irregular.dx file and got some pointers from that... so here's what my output looks like:

        object 1 class array type float rank 1 shape 3 items 12960 data follows
        0.000000 0.000000 0.000000

............. (these dots aren't here... they represent the other 12958 lines)........

                16.245957 -2.864601 -93.556736
attribute "ref" string "positions"
object 2 class array type float rank 0 items 12960 data follows
        1.0

.................................

                1.0
attribute "dep" string "positions"
attribute "ref" string "data"



ok, so my question, I /want/ to connect these points (either through x,y,z (only since delta isn't constant it will be a bent grid), or through a spherical connection between points (ala, globe)).... if you have /any/ advice that would be great.

Thanks,
jon
